Santa Rosa Golf & Beach Club Gets into the Centennial Spirit!
In honor of our Centennial Celebration, Santa Rosa Golf & Beach Club will host a “Ladies & Gents Centennial Afternoon Tea” from 3-5pm on Wednesday, September 8th. The price is $7.95 which includes tea sandwiches, scones, dessert, and of course, freshly and properly brewed tea.
Then, on Thursday, September 16th, they'll host a very special "Centennial Steamboat Dinner." The original authentic menu from the Charles E. Cessna Steamboat (the one that transported future residents to the Santa Rosa Beach area from Mobile and Pensacola in 1910) is the inspiration for the evening’s dinner. The price is $30 per person and includes dinner, a commemorative glass of champagne and the festive keyboard entertainment of Bobby Van Deusen. There will be two seatings, 5:30pm and 7:30pm. Transport yourself back to 1910 and have some vintage fun... and even don some early 1900’s attire if you feel so inclined!
Also, throughout the month of September, you'll receive a free Centennial Celebration golf ball with each round of golf with a paid greens fee, and you can get a complimentary glass of Champagne with any dinner entrée at the Beach Club, which is featuring Centennial-related specials at lunch and dinner all month long.
