Park North Golf Club launches summer youth golf camp for all skill levels
By Tribune Staff • As families look for ways to keep their children active this summer, Park North Golf Club is offering a six-session youth golf camp for kids ages 7-12 in July, designed to introduce kids to the game while helping more experienced players sharpen their skills.
The camp will be led by golf professional Natalie Long, an experienced instructor and former director of the Gateway PGA Junior Golf Tour. Participants will receive hands-on instruction and use Trackman technology, which allows players to track their shots and play interactive games that teach golf fundamentals in an engaging way.
“This camp is different from traditional golf programs because we’re in a climate-controlled environment, so we can play rain or shine,” said RC Martin, Park North’s Director of Golf Operations. “With 40 bays available, it’s designed for players of all skill levels. Whether you’re working on your drive or swinging a club for the first time, it’s a great opportunity to learn the game without dealing with the summer heat or spending hours walking 18 holes.”
The July camp costs $250 and includes six sessions that build on one another throughout the program. Players may bring their own golf clubs or use the ones provided for them.
“It’s a progressive program, so each session reinforces skills they learned in previous weeks,” Martin explained. “Our goal is to introduce young people to golf and give them the chance to try a sport they might not have had the opportunity to try before. Through our Trackman Range technology, campers can play virtual golf courses and mini games while receiving detailed feedback that helps them improve. The best part is that while the kids are participating, parents can rent a bay and play too. It’s a fun way for the whole family to stay active.”
The July Junior Golf Camp begins July 7 and will meet twice a week for three weeks. After completing the program, players will receive a free, one-hour bay pass to continue practicing their skills. Participants can register through the Park North Golf Club website.
