We have been live with our new Teesnap point of sale / tee sheet program for 2 weeks now. Many of you have seen the new program in action as the new program runs on customized IPADs.  As is always the case when transitioning to a new software program, there will be a few challenges along the way. Please be patient with us while we make this transition. In addition to the many enhancements the system provides us, it also gives our customers the ability to book tee times online via our new and improved website, www.golflakeridge.com.
