21st Annual First Swing Seminar and Learn to Golf Clinic

On May 5, 2006, Boas Surgical and Good Shepard co-sponsored the 21st annual First Swing Seminar and Learn to Golf Clinic at Center Valley Club at Stabler Center. The all-day event was a huge success. The weather this year was perfect for the early May date. Thirty-five individuals participated in the event including persons with disabilities or amputations, family members and rehabilitation specialists. Ken Doe CPO, Jeff Bednarik CPO and Aaron Calla CO CPED represented Boas, as well as several patients, including Jeff Harris and Bob Buck. Bob Buck, President of the Eastern Amputee Golf Association, presented Jeff Harris with a donated golf bag and golf clubs at this event. This was Jeff Harris' first time attending the event and he showed great potential. He is looking forward to next year's event.

As a follow-up, anyone interested in learning golf, even for the first time, is welcome to join us on four golf outings this summer. These are being run by Good Sheperd Recreational Therapy Department. The cost is ten dollars per session. Individuals may attend one or all sessions. They will be held at Center Valley Club. Sessions will include practice at the driving range, chipping, putting, and at least two holes of golf on the course. Please click here for printable .pdf registration form.
