Golf: The frustrating game of golf hooked Diana in the mid-1990’s. Now she enjoys traveling across the world to experience new golf courses, although (as most golfers know) swinging a club at a new course doesn’t guarantee a new game.

Rodeos & Cowboys: Diana’s first rodeo was an adventure into the “big city” of Omaha at age 9. After that first energetic, spine-tingling performance, she was hooked on rodeos and the intriguing cowboys that participate.

Adventure: Diana grew up in a neighborhood full of boys, so getting her hands dirty and knees scraped was just a part of being a tomboy. Adventure travel is about the thrill of the moment. From hang-gliding in Chattanooga, Tennessee to zip-lining in Playa, Mexico to riding her motorcycle through the Grand Canyon to the more sedate thrill of swinging over the canyon in Glenwood Springs, Colorado, Diana is an adrenalin junky.

Girls Just Want To Golf — In Wales April 2009 These days, it seems more and more girls just want to play golf, so why not play golf where the game started – or at least nearby in Wales, where “golf is as it should be” is the country’s slogan? A four-day whirlwind visit allowed me to discover that Wales, the home of the 2010 Ryder Cup, is indeed a golfing gal’s new best friend. |

http://www.themeetingmagazines.com/index/Default.aspx?tabid=1136 Attendees at a sales meeting take a much-needed break and play a round of golf. An hour into the game, the players high-five after one of them hits a perfect shot that lands on the green inches from the cup. One hole back, another group can’t help laughing as one sales rep’s drive sails through the air, hits a tree and plunks into the pond. At a scenic 3-par around the bend, another foursome pauses for a moment as a red-tailed fox races across the fairway. Roughly four hours later, they meet in the clubhouse for awards and a casual buffet. The attendees engage in good-natured back-slapping and friendly chatter — a 180-degree turn from the early shotgun start when most of them met for the first time. The dramatic change is the result of a few relaxing hours of camaraderie, teambuilding and new relationships that can only be forged on a golf course.

Girls Just Want To Golf – In Wales http://www.tatianastravelcorner.com article Girls just want to play golf, so why not play golf where the game began – or at least close by in Wales, where “golf as it should be” is the country’s slogan? A four-day whirlwind visit allowed me to discover that Wales, the home of the 2010 Ryder Cup, is indeed a golfing gal’s new best friend. Scotland might be considered the birthplace of golf, but the high price of a round can bring a girl’s swing down. Wales boasts a stunning backdrop of sea and mountain, hill and vale, welcoming people and a natural setting for some of the best golf in the world – and is much less expensive and less crowded than their neighbor. That’s quite enough to put this small, often-missed gem of a country back on the map.

Planning Golf Programs *** Simply put, when your meeting objective is to develop and strengthen business relationships among your clients, sales teams and executives, golf is the answer — especially in the insurance and financial sectors of corporate America. A well-organized and well-executed golf program can produce long-lasting relationships and seal a deal more effectively than days in the boardroom.

Part 1: Tequila and Golf? Your Mexican Dream Vacation in Cancun and Cozumelhttp://www.travelgolf.com/cancun.htm> Twenty-five years ago, Cancun was a tourist’s dream concocted by the Mexican government. These visionaries carved a paradise out of a thick, low, jungle-smothered fourteen-mile islet off the East Coast of the Yucatan Peninsula. This flawless world offers temperatures averaging 80, with summer and autumn more humid, giving us the most opportune season to visit–winter. How perfect is that? A time of year when many of us look out on our own golf courses and only see snow covered bunkers.
The international airport is a short bus ride to the Hotel Zone, featuring over 26,000 hotel rooms that lure almost 3 million visitors each year. No Espanol? No problemo. Although Spanish is the primary language, with Cancun’s primary industry being tourism, you’ll be hard-pressed to find someone that doesn’t know English. French and German are also heard due to the international tourist trade. Okay, so now you’re here. What’s next? Also see: Part 2: More Tequila and More Golf? |
