May is Here!

If this is your first time to the Trilogy Golf Club Blog, Welcome! If you are returning, welcome back!

As I write this blog, I am amazed that tomorrow will be the start of what I feel is one of the best months of the year. I am sure there are some puzzled looks in cyberspace as I make that comment. I have my reasons - first, this month holds both my birthday and my wife’s. On top of that, we've now added the Player’s Championship to the calendar, and the basketball and hockey playoffs are in serious stages. And let's not forget that the baseball teams this month are starting to separate themselves from the rest of the division.

"That’s great, Bob," you say - "but what does that have to do with Trilogy Golf Club at La Quinta?"

Well this month we continue to see a busy schedule of events for the facility, with some warm days, but very comfortable nights. Upcoming events include the Bridgestone Golf Ball Challenge on May 6th. There is a sign up sheet in the Golf Shop to reserve a time. Club fitting and ball fitting specialists from Bridgestone will be here on Sunday to help you determine what is the best golf ball for you. They were out a couple of months ago, and it was a great display that helped a lot of people determine the right equipment for their game.

The Ladies 9 Hole Golf Group will host their first-ever Ladies Invitational with Heritage Palms Golf Club. There are 37 ladies slated to play in this event.

This Friday and Saturday we are hosting the Fellowship of Christian Athletes Ryder Cup event. Headlining the event are Jay Schroeder and Michael Chang. The two day event is a large fundraiser for scholarships to FCA summer sports camps this year.

May 11,12,and 13th will see over 300 former and current FBI agents, friends, and family members teeing up at Trilogy. This is the 4th year for their event out here.

Last week was a big week for the facility; group outings included the Ladies Invitational (60 Ladies), The First Annual TradeParnters Appreciation Day Scramble (over 70 players), and the Lumpy’s Scramble for Autism (over 120 players), which raised somewhere in the neighborhood of $70,000 for the Coachella Valley Autism Society.

Those of you who have read the blog before know full well that we are on the "Anthony Kim watch" on the PGA Tour. Anthony secured his PGA Tour Card for 2008 with his 5th place finish two weeks ago. The Byron Nelson saw Anthony off to a great start, easily making the cut and tying for 7th after two days. Saturday was a new experience for Anthony, he had the pleasure (or challenge!) of playing with VJ Singh. His round of 77 showed that he has a lot of growth when it comes to playing with the upper crest of players on the tour. He rebounded and finished with a 67 on the final day.

May is also our "Free Golf Lesson" month. You can sign up in the Golf Shop for a free 10 minute golf lesson with me. Check out the available times I have set up. Find out how I can make your summer of golf that much more enjoyable.

I invite you to constantly check our website for some exciting golf specials this month, and also look for our summer "Frequent Player" card that will be offered by the middle of the month.

Until next week, keep rolling that rock.

Bob Veroulis
