Summer Programs!

• First Annual Golf Outing
  The Botsford Center for Health Improvement (BCHI) hosted its first annual Golf Outing at Lyon Oaks Golf Club on May 20th. With good weather and about 25 participants, it was a great turnout! Many thanks to Botsford Home Medical and The Botsford Foundation for their assistance with recruiting, prizes and goodie bags.
  
  The event culminated four months of golf related programs and activities at BCHI.  These included 12 weeks of Golf Conditioning fitness classes and seminars that began in February to help golfers get ready for the season. Most participants have reported longer drives, improved flexibility and reduced soreness. One couple was so energized and conditioned from the class; they spent a weekend up north, playing 6 rounds (108 holes) of golf over a 3-day weekend! In late March, BCHI held its 2nd Annual Golf Expo that featured free swing analysis with PGA Pro Paul Simpson, a Golf Fitness seminar and seven local golf equipment vendors and golf courses.
  
  If you're still looking for golf fitness tips, call (248) 473-3100 and ask for Cliff for more information about our Golf Personal Training package.
