GOLF NEWS FOR SNOWBIRDS

Snowbird Friends,

Thought I would share an article that was just posted on scnow.com for all the golf lovers out there. I am sure that you will want to add Sandpiper Bay Golf to your list of courses to play while wintering in Myrtle Beach.

"Sandpiper Bay Golf & Country Club in Sunset Beach, N.C. has been selected as 2010 Golf Course of the Year by the Myrtle Beach Area Golf Course Owners Association.
The honor was presented to Sandpiper Bay general manager Tim Tilma by David Durant, MBAGCOA president and George Hilliard, executive director.
More than 100 Myrtle Beach area golf courses were considered for the award and ultimately two finalists were selected based on the following four criteria: exceptional quality of the golf course, exceptional quality of the ownership and management, outstanding contribution to the community and significant contribution to the game.
This summer, the Dan Maples-designed golf course concluded a three-year renovation project where all 27 greens were converted from bent grass to MiniVerde Bermuda grass.
MiniVerde is one of the newest and best of the hybrid Bermuda grasses that provide quality putting surfaces during the warm summers in the Carolinas.
Prior to being named 2010 Golf Course of the Year, Sandpiper Bay was named Best of Sunset Beach in the golf course category by the U.S. Commerce Association in 2008 and 2009." scnow.com

Thank you for choosing Southern Coast Vacations as your winter rental headquarters.
