Oak Ridge Junior Program 2015
Milton, WI
Welcome to the Oak Ridge Summer Junior Golf Program!
Our goal is to provide a fun learning environment while teaching the life-long game of golf. We hope you
enjoy learning and playing golf as much as we do! Here’s an overview of our program for the summer:
Levels: Children can be signed up as a “3-Holer,” “6-Holer,” or “9-Holer.” If we notice that someone is misplaced, we will
move him or her accordingly. A few guidelines to help place your children appropriately:
“3-Holers” are not always beginners. Perhaps they have never played golf or only a few times, but they may have been
a 3-holer last year. They will only play 3 shortened holes (~150 yards each) after lessons each week. One
parent per group is required when the 3-holers go out to play.
“6-Holers” should have played golf several times, but cannot shoot better than 60’s for 9 full-length holes. They must
know basic rules and etiquette of the game, and must be able to carry their own clubs for the entire 6 holes
(some shortened holes, some regular length). They are not required to have adult supervision for the 6 holes
that they will play after lessons each week, so, if you are not comfortable sending your child out on the golf
course without supervision, you must walk along with him/her or sign up as a 3-Holer.
“9-Holers” are usually ages 13 and over. They have played golf for a few years, and can shoot scores in the 60’s or
better for 9 holes, and can finish 9 full-length holes in less than 2 hours. Just because your child is capable of
playing 9 holes doesn’t mean he/she should be a 9-holer. They will play 9 holes after lessons each week.
New This Year: We are offering one “1-Holer” class for kids entering 4-K or Kindergarten next fall with no previous
golf experience. This will be a shortened group lesson (~30 min) and will focus on golf course etiquette—participants
will play only one hole after the lesson. We are also offering one “High School Only” class for high school aged kids
who might be interested in playing competitive golf in high school. These lessons will run similar to a 9-holer class.
Lesson Schedule: The lesson schedule is found on the next page. Keep in mind that you will choose only one session, and this
will be your child’s session each week. For the safety of your child, we encourage you to walk along with
them during the golf portion whenever possible. Some groups may not be allowed on the course without an
adult. But if you will not be walking along, you may drop off your child at Bonny Meade, and pick him/her up
approximately 3 hours later for the 9-holers, 2 hours later for the 6-holers, and 1 ½ hours later for the 3-holers.
Sessions Available:
9-Holers: Tuesday 9:00 or 9:45,
Thursday 8:45 or 9:30
High School Age only: Thursday 8:00am
6-Holers: Tuesday 9:45 or 11:15 or 12:00, Thursday 8:45 or 9:30 or 11:00 or 11:45am

1-Holer: Tuesday 1:30pm (Ages 3-5 only)
*Please note that some of these sessions overlap—for example, the Tuesday 9:45 class will consist of both 9 and 6-holers.
Where: Lessons will take place at the Bonny Meade Driving Range, and golf after each lesson will also be at Bonny Meade.
There will be no gas carts allowed during the lessons. A limited number of pull carts are available for a rental
fee of $3 during the lessons.
Weather: Please have your child prepared for all types of weather conditions. We recommend having a bottle of water or sport
drink (or money to buy one!) since the days can be long and hot. We also recommend your son or daughter
has sunscreen and a hat or visor. Regardless of the weather, always assume we are having golf. We will still
go as scheduled in rain. If there is thunder and lightning we will not have the lessons, but please call—
sometimes it can be storming where you are, but not at the course! We will notify you if classes are cancelled
and when they will be rescheduled. The direct phone number to Bonny Meade is 608-868-4367.
Tournament:
Tuesday, August 4 is the year-end tournament for all 9-holers, 6-holers, and 3-holers. 9 & 6-holers will
participate in the morning, and 3-holers will participate in the afternoon. Lunch is provided.
Cost:
Cost for this Junior Program will be based on the level chosen—“3-Holers” cost $75, “6-Holers” cost $85, and
“9-Holers” cost $95. Payment can be made by Cash or Check only (No Credit or Debit cards). Checks and
Money Orders should be made out to Oak Ridge Golf Course.

Important Information on
Junior Program Participant Privileges
As a special incentive for program participants to play additional golf during the program weeks, we are
allowing all participants to play at Oak Ridge or Bonny Meade for $3.00 per nine holes during certain
times. The restrictions and times are as follows:
Junior Participant Card Holder receives $3 rate at Oak
Ridge or Bonny Meade during these times only:
• Monday thru Friday—anytime there is availability.
• Sundays—only AFTER 4:00pm.
• $3 rate is not valid on Saturdays.
• $3 rate starts June 16 and ends August 4.
All play is on a space-available basis and they MUST have a tee time.

This rate is good during the Junior Program weeks only. (June 16-August 4)
Juniors must walk. Pull carts are available to rent for $3 per nine holes.
This $3 rate is for Participants Only. Participants must show their Junior Program Participant
Card to get the rate. Any juniors not in the program must pay the regular junior rate of $10.
Must call for tee time. We would like to teach your child to make tee times! So, please encourage
them to call ahead if they want to come out and play for the $3-rate. Plan ahead.
Call if you need to cancel your tee time. Similarly, we would like your child to call if he or she has
to cancel a tee time! There’s nothing more frustrating for a golf course that is waiting for someone to
show up for a booked tee time!
Participants may play Saturdays, and Sunday mornings for the regular junior rate with parents or
other adults as the course availability permits.
Adult rates are $13 for nine holes Monday through Friday, and $16 Saturday, Sunday, and Holidays.
Adults may also rent a cart, $16 per 9 holes.
**Please note that Oak Ridge will not be liable for any injury or harm that could happen to your child on
the golf course. If you do not feel comfortable letting them play golf alone or with another child, send a
babysitter or other adult with them to walk along. Horseplay will not be tolerated. If your child does not
use proper golf etiquette, he or she may be taken off the golf course and out of the junior program.
