Ordinarily I despise August—summer’s winding down, but it’s not quite time for fall yet—but this year I have a golf reason to look forward to August: the SEC BeachFest Alumni Golf Scramble.
Even without the golf scramble, the SEC BeachFest weekend (scheduled for August 23rd to 26th) promises to be a fun time. A kickoff to the SEC football season, the weekend will include current and legendary SEC coaches, live music, sports clinics, and games, to name just a few things.
And then there’s the golf scramble, which will be played at several Gulf Shores Golf Association golf courses—including a championship round at Kiva Dunes. That alone is worth signing up for! For $400 ($1600 per foursome) you get two rounds of golf, a buffet breakfast and lunch, a gift bag, and a chance to play for the championship round.
Or you could play for free—if you win the free foursome entry being given away by the GSGA. The free entry includes everything included in the entry fee. The winner will be chosen after the event, so be sure to register for the scramble and register for a chance to win on the Golf Gulf Shores Facebook page.
My entry is in, and I’m feeling lucky…see you on the golf course!

Don’t Just Dream of a Golf Vacation—Plan One!
I admit, I was dreaming of a white Christmas last week—it’s the one time of year that I actually long for cold weather—but now I’m back to dreaming of sunshine and warmth. And if I were to head down to Gulf Shores & Orange Beach right now, my dream may actually come true. They’re looking at some warm weather the next couple of days, with highs around 70 degrees.
That is simply perfect golf weather, and tempting enough that I’m thinking of calling in sick to work and squeezing in a quick trip to the Gulf. The weather certainly is one enticing reason to visit Gulf Shores & Orange Beach this winter, but it’s not the only reason.
For instance, several Gulf Shores Golf Association golf courses are offering winter rates—there are some excellent deals on golf packages to be found at places like Craft Farms and Gulf Shores Golf Club. And golfers looking to improve their skills might want to attend one of the winter golf clinics being offered at Kiva Dunes every Tuesday and Thursday through January and February. It could be a good way to brush up on those golf skills before spring.
It’s easy enough to plan a golf getaway—just visit the Gulf Shores Golf Association website to start putting together that winter golf vacation.
