Non-profit organizations are struggling right now, unable to host essential in- person fund raising events in which contributions greatly support their wonderful causes. You can help! Together with OneHope Wine.. Share wine, give hope. ONEHOPE Wine is a Napa Valley, California winery. From humble beginnings and a lofty vision, ONEHOPE was founded on one simple idea: that great wine can change the world. It's over a bottle of wine that we gather together, open our hearts and share stories that shape our vision for the future. ONEHOPE has donated more than $5.6 million to causes around the world. ONEHOPE donates half its profits to charity and each ONEHOPE wine varietal supports a different charitable cause or organization. A portion of the proceeds from this wine tasting event will go to support the Home Start Hope Organization.

Gift certificates available for Thai Massage or Reflexology. Contact Andrea Mathis at andrea.mathis@hmsgolf.com or call 770-324-3175
THAI MASSAGE (sometimes referred to as assisted yoga, or lazy man’s yoga). Thai massage is focused on improving the flow of energy throughout the body. It is great for those who desire a more active form of massage. It is different from traditional massage in that the person lies fully clothed on a mat on the ground while the practitioner uses stretching, pulling, and rocking techniques to relieve tension, promote relaxation, and improve flexibility and circulation. REFLEXOLOGY is a form of bodywork that involves applying pressure to the hands and feet to produce changes in pain and other benefits elsewhere in the body. The theory behind reflexology is that there are certain points or "reflex areas" on the feet and hands that are connected energetically to specific organs and body parts through energy channels in the body. By applying pressure to reflex areas, a reflexologist is said to remove energy blockages and promote health in the related body area.
SAVE $40 ON PEMF SESSIONS (Pulse Electromagnetic Frequency) (4) 30 minutes sessions for $99 regular price $140
PEMF is a revolutionary non-invasive wellness modality that utilizes soothing pulsed electromagnetic fields. PEMF machines apply focused pulsing magnetic stimulation to the body at the cellular level. By stimulating and exercising the cells, PEMF addresses underlying cellular dysfunction and supports the body’s natural healing and regulating abilities. Benefits include: speedy workout recovery, more energy, decrease in inflammation and overall general relaxation which helps the healing process.

GOLF NEWS MGA NEWS YOU CAN USE… by Jeff Graham, MGA Board Communications Chair BRIDGEMILL WINS 2020 MGA CHALLENGE CUP THANKS TEAM CAPTAIN JACK QUIGLEY! (Written by Team Captain Jack Quigley) It's official! The BridgeMill MGA wins the 5th Annual MGA Challenge Cup versus Lake Arrowhead and retains The Cup. This is the 4th victory out of the last 5 years and the first year we won at home due to some great golf on Sunday at BridgeMill! We flipped the 9's at home this year so we could set up to watch teams come into the 9th green and it made for some exciting viewing. After day 1 best ball and alternate shot at Lake Arrowhead, both MGA's were tied at 11 points heading into Sunday. The morning format on day 2 at BridgeMill was a scramble and the BridgeMill MGA came away with a 3 point lead (7 - 4) heading into the afternoon singles matches. We needed those 3 points too, because the Lake Arrowhead team managed to overcome that deficit and took the lead after securing 10 points to our 6 points in 16 of the first 22 singles matches. BridgeMill was down 1 with the last 3 anchor matches still come and the BridgeMill MGA team delivered! Graham/ Graves, Brown/Chattin and Fulton/ Lahmann took 5 of the last 6 available points to propel us to victory. Final Score: BridgeMill 29 – Lake Arrowhead 26! We had some all-star out performances on Sunday. Graham/Graves was the only team to grab all 3 Sunday points. Great job Chris and Jeff … Shake & Bake! We had a lot of guys like John B, Nick B, John Foster, Ricky Haynes, Darryl F, Quigley, McCulloch and Chris Chattin go low just when we needed it in the single matches. Other highlights include: Nick's birdie on 8 to take a one up lead going to the last and getting a point. Jeff G’s long putt from off the green on 9 to a few feet to secure his point. Chris G, down 3 after 4 holes and storming back to get the point. Todd M getting the last 2 holes to grab a 1/2 point. This year's handicap requirement kept that matches closer than usual, so I think that was a positive change. A big thank you to Bob Nitishin for taking the day to help set the course up and keep the groups moving. Troy/Denise - as usual, thanks for all the help! I heard nothing but great things from the Lake Arrowhead team about how well the event was run and what a great finishing experience on hole 9 – something we will definitely do in the future. It was an awesome weekend! The new MGA season will start in January and earning MGA Player of the Year points is the way to play onto the team for 2021. Get out there and play!
MGA PAR THREE - LAST CHANCE FOR PLAYER OF THE YEAR POINTS Mark your calendars on December 12, 2020 for the final event of the year – the MGA Par Three. Yes you heard that right… all 18 holes will be converted to par three’s. Candy Canes will mark the tee boxes and be prepared for some interesting shots. Sign up early as this event fills up fast and don’t forget to dress in your favorite holiday attire. Have you ever seen an elf swing a club? MGA Tournament Fee: $45
