Bring your lunch or order a lunch of hot dog, chips, and cola for an extra $3 when you register. Youth golf clubs are available for use during the camp. Anyone who has clubs may bring them, although we will only be using a driver, a middle iron, and a putter.
This is an excellent way to find out if golf is the game for you. Youth campers will learn proper etiquette and rules for play on a golf course and then head to the driving range to learn how to hold and swing the club while hitting practice shots. The young beginners will learn how to determine what club to use and practice putting. After lunch, we’ll go out on the course to put the morning lessons to work. We pack a lot into one day with fun teaching techniques.
Attention scouts: this camp meets some of the requirements for the Girl Scouts Sports Sampler Badge and the Boy Scouts Sports Golf Merit Badge. Badges are not included in the program.

Meet Tom Zimmerman, Golf Instructor at Cedar Creek
Golfing since the mid 1970s, Tom Zimmerman has more than 30 years of
practical experience; playing golf, teaching children and adults,
coaching high school golf team players, and playing as an amateur in
tournaments. As the
instructor at Cedar Creek, he approaches adult and youth golfers
differently. Zimmerman
says, “Adults have habits that are deeply ingrained, so instead of
correcting their habits, I watch their swing, look for their
strengths, and help them build on what they do well.”
When asked how he teaches youth, he notes, “Young golfers
haven’t had time to develop bad habits, so I like to instill the
basics of grip, stance, and swing.”
When asked how he became a golf instructor, Zimmerman said,
“I just love golf and I want other people to love it too.
When they hit one great shot their faces light up.
It’s the greatest thing.”
Zimmerman says the driving range at Cedar Creek is better
than ever. Upgrades
being implemented include more distance markers, upgraded golf
balls, and a variety of new targets to be introduced throughout the
season. Whether you are
a beginner or a seasoned golfer, there is a program at Cedar Creek
that fits your needs.
