The 18th Tri-State Junior Golf Association season begins June 25 with five tournaments on the schedule.
The opener will be at Waynesboro Country Club, sponsored by Manitowoc Crane.

“I’m looking forward to seeing the kids that return and to the new players,” said director Bill Hoffman. “We’re going into the season financially secure, the first time I can remember that in a while.”
