As the golf season is fast approaching, I am already working with
the juniors in our area to prepare them for the golf spring season
and to begin the process of developing our new Saratoga High
School Golf Team.
The first effort currently underway is the new Golf
in Schools program developed by the Colorado
Section of the PGA. Golf in Schools is a three day
process where all the kids in each
school in our district are taught the proper
technique of hitting a golf ball. Here is the
schedule for the following schools:
Saratoga Elementary School March 27th-March 29th
Hanna Junior-Senior High School April 2nd-April 4th
Saratoga High School April 16th-April 19th
Riverside/Encampment School the week of April 24th
Hanna Elementary, Medicine Bow Elementary, and Elk
Mountain Elementary the days of April 20th, April 27th, and
May 11th.
We will have our Annual Junior Golf Camp
sponsored by the Saratoga Lions Club during the
weeks of June 11th, June 18th, and June 25th. Only
this year is going to be more than golf. It will be our

What does science, live surgery and a cadaver
lab have to do with the Saratoga Resort? Well,
our local high school students took a 2nd
annual trip to SERI (Spine Education &
Research Institute) in Denver CO on Monday,
March 26th and Tuesday, March 27th. On
Monday the students started out watching a
live surgery and being able to ask the surgeon
questions. Following the surgery a nurse
showed the students proper suture techniques
and they got to practice suturing on pigs feet.
They finished their first day with tacos and
bowling. On Tuesday, they spent a few hours
in the cadaver lab and WOW what an
experience that was! If a student is interested
in the medical field, this was the place to
decide whether or not this is the field you
wanted to study. It was hands on and so
educational with the SERI interns leading the
way.
This opportunity given to these local rural
students was more than they expected and is
something they will never forget. Now, what
does this have to do with the Resort? Well, we
have scheduled the Summer Science Camp
again this year to be held at the Resort July
16th-18th. Please visit our Calendar of Events
at www.saratogaresortandspa.com for more
info and to register. The SERI staff did such a
great job that we have no doubt this will be a
great summer project for us to host again this
year!
