Though Widgi Creek has had a
relatively small demographic of junior
golfers in the past, numbers are on the
rise, Giacomini added. The two Oper-
ation 36 classes this spring are four ju-
niors ages 6 to 10 and 11 to 13. An addi-
tional series of summer classes will start
in July.
Junior golf is also on the rise at Juni-
per Golf Course in Redmond, which
has hired a new teaching professional,
Hayden Stratton, who will be running
PGA Junior League, coaching nights
during the week, and facilitating three
different themed junior camps this
season.
For years, the Central Oregon Junior
Golf Association (COJGA) has pro-
vided juniors a chance to compete at
some of the area’s finest courses for an
affordable price. Area PGA professional
and founder of the Modern Golf Club,
Nate Kitt, has stepped in to enhance the
COJGA experience in 2021.
