PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

This week we welcomed Assistant Chief Paul Restivo of the Jacksonville Sheriffs Office, during which he answered many great questions regarding the upcoming RNDC, the protests in Jax, and several other topics. 

As Chief Restivo said, "We have all taken an oath and have a code of ethics that we live by, and will continue to take care of everyone in the community".

MONTHLY GOLF OUTING

Join us for our monthly Golf Outing at Hyde Park Golf Club!

They're not making them like Hyde Park Golf Club anymore. Located in Jacksonville, Florida visitors can play virtually the same course that was designed by the legendary Scottish architect Donald Ross in 1925.

The gorgeous Southern pines and Spanish oaks that line the course are even more mature and majestic than they were 80 years ago that lend's a special aura to the playing experience. Since the layout has not changed, you can play the same course and face the same shot-making decisions as the legends of the game.
