Wexford’s PGA Junior League

Posted on July 27, 2016 by Kelly Cody

Hilton Head area PGA Junior Leagues garnered some national attention this week, as Harrison Mancill (representing the Country Club of Hilton Head) and John Berrigan (representing Wexford Plantation, coached by our very own James Scales!) both hit a hole-in-one last Friday on the SAME hole in the Junior League final match at the Country Club of Hilton Head. The two boys, ages 13 and 10, had back-to-back holes in one on the 89-yard, par-3 fifth hole.

According to the National Hole in One Registry, the odds of two players from the same foursome acing the same hole are 17 million to one.

Not only did these two players receive recognition locally in the Island Packet, the story was also picked up by the PGA AND the Golf Channel’s Morning Drive. Congratulations to both players!

Celebrating Red, White & Blue ALL Weekend Long

Posted on July 6, 2016 by Kelly Cody

This year’s 4th of July Celebration was a little different than years past. We amped up our annual event (typically celebrated on just one day) and hosted an entire weekend full of activities!

A few notable favorites included our:

Star Spangled 5K – Saturday, July 2nd
We kicked off the weekend with an inaugural 5K! This fun run/walk consisted of a 3.1 mile route throughout the neighborhood followed by post-race awards and refreshments under the misting tent. With 34 participants, we were pleased to see so many families (including our 4-legged family members) join in on the fun!

Rockin’ in the USA Pool Party & Lunch – Saturday, July 2nd
This year’s bounce house party was held poolside, along with entertainment from DJ Alan, including a Dance Party (both on land AND in the pool), Hula Hoop Contest, Limbo Contest and of course music!

Children’s Fishing Tournament – Sunday, July 3rd
This year we had a record number of children (26!) compete to catch the MOST fish! Although the fish were slow to bite on Sunday, the children were able to see several different types of fish that live in their backyards.

Stars & Stripes Round Robin – Monday, July 4th
We had a spirited event with over 20 participants!

23rd Annual Cart Parade & Cookout – Monday, July 4th
This is year’s cart parade was one of our largest! We had 50 carts decked out in holiday spirit parading throughout the neighborhood. Following the parade, all the participants headed to the Clubhouse where they enjoyed traditional BBQ favorites!
