At Sixtyone, we use four weekly themes to help us focus, develop and be our best. Self-awareness is the focus for the first week of each month. We work on paying attention to how what we say, what we think, what we feel and what we do affects ourselves and others.
The first week of summer camp started with a promise to go back to the basics. We promised to start over from the beginning and do the work needed to learn more about golf and learn more about how to be a Sixtyone golfer.
We promised to focus on the weekly themes.
