GRAND CELEBRATION
On August 19th at 7:00 PM the Club will host a celebration of George Williams’ upcoming 100th birthday and golf at Coharie for the past 70 years. The fact that the 70th anniversary of the opening of the golf course coincides with George’s birthday milestone is incredible.

Family members of all ages can appreciate the significance of this evening.
