Come Meet Tin Cup this Weekend at the Kingsmill Championship

Looking for a fun day trip in the Mid-Atlantic area this weekend?  Then come join us at the Kingsmill Championship in Williamsburg, VA!  If you’ve haven’t yet attended any LPGA events, they are so much fun – the players are appreciative of the crowd support and are genuinely personable, stopping to give autographs and interact with the fans.  You can tell they are true competitors and also truly enjoying their careers.  If you have a daughter or son who is interested in golf, you really need to come take them to this event. 

 And at LPGA events, they really cater to the whole family--the LPGA's foundation, Girls Golf, is sponsoring a Family Fun Zone on both Saturday and Sunday of the tournament.  The Family Fun Zone features moon bounces, face painting, exotic animals from Busch Gardens, and of course, Tin Cup doodling - where golfers of all ages can try out some new Tin Cup designs, take a break from the action, and give the little ones a chance to disperse some of their boundless energy!  If you act soon you can probably also sign your child up for some free children’s golf clinics. 

 We hope to see you there, we’d love to meet you!  The weather for this weekend looks gorgeous. 

Mother's Day Gift Ideas

It’s Mother’s Day in little over a week.  If you’re like most of us, you’re starting to panic about not having a gift for your wife or mom!  Well, never fear, the Tin Cup Gift Guru is here.  Here are a few suggestions for gifts that are sure to let her know you love her.  Any of these items will be a big hit!

1. What Makes Olga Run? The Mystery of the 90-Something Track Star and What She Can Teach Us About Living Longer, Happier Lives– This is a fantastic book about longevity and happiness that everyone should read!  (Maybe you can borrow it back from your mom once she’s done with it).  Kindle edition - $9.99, Hardcover $19.18 

2. Tunic Shirt or Dress

We love the Sail to Sable brand.  Their “Shake it all Shift” and the “Classic Top (Bright Green)” are so versatile, preppy, and fun.  Both are priced around $180 -- trust us she will wear them at least once a week!

3.  Jewelry from the Preppy Pink Pony –Cutout monogram jewelry is really in.  If you order her monogram but don’t receive it by mother’s day, then print out a photo of the necklace and wrap it up in a box - and tell her it’s on the way.   

4.  Bed and Breakfast Gift Certificate --This is for a really, really special person in your life.  One of our favorites, the Inn at Perry Cabin is the ultimate scenic relaxing getaway…. And yes, if it looks familiar, it’s where they filmed “The Wedding Crashers.” Sun, Spa, Shopping, Sailing, Seafood…..what’s not to love?!

5.  Footjoy Spectrum Golf Glove.  These are great:  they’re comfortable, affordable and colorful!  (And only $24.95)
