LEHMAN, Pa. — Are you looking to learn the game of golf in a relaxed atmosphere with players of your own ability? Whether you are a novice or a beginner, you will have fun learning the fundamentals, including grip, stance, alignment and the full swing. Develop skills for pitching, chipping and putting on a grass putting green with plenty of time for questions about everything from clubs to course strategies.
