joe, any idea if they are looking for volunteers? I am an avid golfer with days free I'd love to help out with something like this since it was never around when I was a kid. Thanks

Call Karen McInturff at 410-548-4900 ext. 113 or email at kmcinturff@wicomicocounty.org. I believe they may be in need of coaches, but Karen would know for sure.
