This was a great activity with my teen daughters. The instruction was very helpful and the staff came back often to see how we were doing and gave some pointers to the kids so they could be more successful in their throws.

So you’re serious about taking your game to the next level? Golf Anytime gives you access to the same exact “Full Swing Golf Simulators” that Tiger Woods, Jordan Spieth, and Hunter Mahan use to fine-tune their own swings. Stop wasting time and money hitting buckets of balls into the empty abyss at the driving range. Without proper monitoring, and feedback, you can only rely on your gut. Our accurate “launch monitors” show you what’s really going on with your swing. Keep a detailed history of each and every shot, right along with the key “swing metrics” you need to start making a real difference in your game. When you’re ready to put your swing to the test, choose between any of our 68 virtual courses. Including Pebble Beach, Torrey Pines, and St. Andrews! If you’re ready to “up” your game, give us a call and we’ll get you plugged-in, without destroying your wallet. Golf Anytime. Where it pays to play.

$4 for a walk-in half hour visit (yes this implies they do take reservations!). There were about 10 cats that call this shelter home. A lot were sleeping, but a few were looking for scratchies, pets and up for a little play time. You can take your coffee in there, but don't pick the cats up - thats rule number one. It was a fun. relaxing time and doesn't even smell like cat poo.
