The MGA will be on hand to answer membership questions and more at its booth, but is also providing a quality lineup of local golf leaders on the MGA Education Stage. Instructors Brian Crowell, Steve Scott, Bill Smittle and Kirk Oguri are lined up for workshops, while Gene Westmoreland will cover the Rules, Frank Darby will provide college and recruiting information and Karen Young will aim to help your game through a yoga demonstration.
In addition to the wide-ranging list of vendors, Met PGA club professionals have volunteered to give 10-minute lessons, while advice and contests will also be available on several custom putting greens.
