New Ferry Service Between Ardrosson and Campbeltown

A new ferry service between Ardrosson and Campbeltown was recently announced for the summer months this year.  Ardrosson is a town on the North Ayrshire coast in southwestern Scotland.  Campbeltown is situated near the Mull of Kintyre in Argyll, Scotland.  This new ferry service is a huge boost for the local community and more importantly for PerryGolf clients.

St. Andrews International Underway

It’s not like the Home of Golf needs another course but the more the merrier!  I read with great interest this week that work has officially started on the new St. Andrews International project located just outside the town.  With a planned opening date of spring 2015, there is a lot of work to be done, but let hope this provides yet another world class course to the area.  Further details of the story can be found here, with project details at the following link – http://www.standrewsigc.com/ .

Walking with Jack – an ideal Father’s Day gift for a loved one

It is very possibly every father’s dream for his son or daughter to be a better golf than they are and for their offspring to understand and embrace the sport which provides so many lessons in life. It was that simple goal which propelled Don Snyder to pursue his dream for his son, Jack.

Walking with Jack is a story about the relationship between a father and son and how golf brought them together as they both faced their own set of challenges. It will resonate with parents who have children of all ages as the time goes by so quickly. It was only yesterday I noticed a comment that there are only 940 Saturdays between the birth of your child and their departure for college! This book captures some of these fleeting moments beautifully.

Don is a thoughtful, eloquent writer and serves as a role model as a father for his selfless devotion to his family and preparing them for their adult life as well as anyone could hope. At the end of the day, it is a very enjoyable read which will resonate with many readers as it prompts you to recall moments in your life with your father or son. An ideal gift for Father’s Day.
