Bunker Mentality

Whacking little white balls around delicately manicured lawns has long been a staple of outdoor activity around town. However, there’s always been one teensy-weensy problem with the whole setup, and it’s spelled s-u-m-m-e-r.

Whacking little white balls around delicately manicured lawns has long been a staple of outdoor activity around town. However, there’s always been one teensy-weensy problem with the whole setup, and it’s spelled s-u-m-m-e-r.

Golf under the stars and the lights after the sun’s finally been put out of our misery for another day. Nine illuminated holes at the historic Encanto Golf Course will be open for business, and participants can pick up their glow-in-the-dark balls at check-in, which starts at 6:30.
