On Wednesday, the group took a road trip to Sedona, AZ to visit Oak Creek Golf Club. The two hour ride to Sedona was a beautiful drive through mountains, canyons, and desert. Upon arrival, the group was met by the superintendent of the course (head maintenance and grounds), and the head golf professional Heather Risk.

| Learning from the superintendent of Oak Creek about different types of grass, fertilizers, and the challenges of working grounds at a golf course. |
 |
| The superintendent explained the wear and tear of golfers on a putting green, and the potential threats of disease to the grass. |
 |
| We were able to get a group lesson from golf pro Heather Risk. She played on the LPGA and regularly coaches. She gave us a lot of great pointers! |
In the afternoon, we loaded up the carts and were able to play 18 holes at Oak Creek. It was a ton of fun and some of the holes were unbelievably scenic!
 |
| Great view from one of the holes! |
 |
| This is the signature hole on the course. Unreal Par 3 into the canyons! Great swing by David, he dropped it right on the green. |
We drove back through the darkness and fell right to sleep. It was an amazing day in Sedona.
