2025 Season Kick-off

@

Laurel Hill Golf Club

Lorton, VA

Saturday, March 22, 2025

On a brisk, cool, and windy early spring day, 64 golfers kicked off the DC Metro 2025 season with a bang @ Laurel Hill Golf Club. The sun was out early followed with intermittent winds and at times overcast throughout the day. The Par 71 Course was in near perfect season condition and the greens were unforgiving. The level of competition this early in the season set the tone for what we believe will be very competitive. A few flights went down to the last hole. While there were no sudden death playoffs there were 24 birdies and two eagles. Yes, the greenskeeper must have been mad because the pin placements throughout the day made the course even tougher. The support from the course staff was awesome. Thanks to each of you for the positive feedback on season opening event.
