Photos and Story by

Instead of flowers or chocolate this Valentine’s day, surprise that special loved one with a new hobby like golf. This winter, Portland Community College will offer a beginning class designed to teach the basics of golf that will get people ready for spring tee times.

In the non-credit class, Golf at McKay Creek: Beginning Coed, learn the basic golf strokes with pro Craig Wilcox, who will instruct students on lighted practice greens, as well as chipping and pitching areas. Students must provide their own clubs. The class will meet from 6 to 7 p.m., Wednesdays, Feb. 13 through March 12, at the McKay Creek Golf Course, 1416 N.W. Jackson. Cost is $89.
