THE TRUTH ABOUT SPORTS!!!
By Jock MacKenzie – Twice voted one of 50 best radio sports
broadcasters in the United States.
No one could blame the hysteria that fell among the band of leaders
who purchased full ownership of three golf courses in Palm coast
in the early part of this year.
Flags were flying and enthusiasm was at its highest. These men and women were walking on air as
they abounded with enthusiasm over full ownership of golf courses that had been
at top level for decades.
Then the rains came. it
rained in the morning, rained at night. The rains fell nearly every time they
and those who worked there tried to put together unmatchable golf games.
Yes, i am fully aware that things happen when those running the
show are trying their best. However, whacking them in the morning, whacking
them at night, whacking them day after day is a little too far over the hill.
How the owners and leaders prevailed is difficult to imagine. how
they carried on with this mess of rain pouring down day after day is difficult
to fathom.
For the owners and those who worked at the pine and cypress courses it was
always, “Are you ready for some golf?
They refused to give up, not this team. Leaders like Henry Angle, Brian Malanson and
Dora Garcia who is busier than a coat hanger at this time while signing members for this coming year.
I was among those who came to Palm Coast
in 1995 and never did I view the onslaught that befell this new ownership. The constant rains - rain in the morning,
rain at night - was enough to put the clubs in a bag and simply give up. But truthfully, not these people, not this
group of owners. They put the hammer
down and hung in there like no one I have seen in action before except for we Americans who fought in war day after day.
Now their day may finally have arrived. It simply cannot rain day after day any longer
than it already has.
So, with all the golf I’ve seen and played in my life I know it is
now their time to play this marvelous game without either being sent back home
or whacking away in slush.
Frankly, and from the heart, the owners of The Grand Club of Palm Coast
will have golfers who are out there with smiles and joy like it always was and
should be now.
Please remember, time is like a river. No one can touch the water twice, because the
flow that has passed will never pass again.
Enjoy every moment of life like never before. Reach into your bag for the golf club of
choice and do it with the smile that only a golfer knows.
Your time is now because the Henry Angle’s, the brian melansons, the
Dora Garcias and more are ready to show you the time of your life at two
beautiful golf courses named Pine Lakes and Cypress Knoll but in reality the
Grand Club of Palm Coast!
Garcia, by the way, is presently busier than a ten armed paper
hanger. With a new and attractive
membership rate, the Club is zooming with entries.
More simply said, the Grand Club has hung in there long enough to
win the old ball game and time is now on their side!
