Locas win Daytona Running Series 5K
Palm Coasters Gillian Taylor (Masters) and Christian Baeza (9U) both won first place for their age group at the Bill Walter Melanoma Research Fund/Rayz Awareness 5K on Saturday, April 2, in Ormond.
Christian also won his age division for the overall Daytona Running Series season by accumulating the most points over 10 racing events.
Greens for Teens move to Cypress Knoll
The Greens for Teens afternoon golf program has moved from the Palm Harbor Golf Course to Cypress Knoll Golf Course at 53 Easthampton Blvd.
At Cypress Knoll, students will have their own "golf club", a building set aside for them. It will serve as a separate, safe location to store clubs from the other golfers. More time on the course will also be expected.
We are working with the Flagler County schools to determine if we provide transportation from Buddy Taylor and FPCHS. We have been informed that bus service from Indian Trails and Matanzas is not available. However, we are pursuing alternative means to get the students to the course. We will keep you informed.
New registration and permission slips need to be completed and turned in immediately for the new location.
Call Chris Bell at 904-329-9148 for additional information.
