For three years running, we have been a part of the golf academy at Burning Tree Golf Course in DeSoto, KS.  It’s every Tuesday & Thursday afternoon in the summer for about 6 weeks and it’s grown to about 54 kids.  It’s always blazing hot but they really enjoy it.   Truthfully, Jake just likes to rub elbows with the golf Pro, Ryan Patterson, Drew seems to win hot dogs and drinks every lesson, and Reece claims to be a chipping master and won this candy bar in the last challenge.  She didn’t realize that the candy bar she chose had a wrapper that describes her perfectly! ha!The last two sessions of the summer are the tournament days.  Parents, grandparents, and high school golf team members are the caddies – this year Papa and Greg were there and did a great job!
And great news….the Conley kids & Collin all finished first place in the tournament in their age brackets.  Way to go kids!

This year we got our sweet neighbors across the street to join the academy!  Brian keeps asking if we get a discount for having multiple kids in the academy and referrals.  So far, no luck on that but I’m sure he’ll keep trying!
