<strong>Spring</strong> Training Scottsdale, Arizona - A trip to remember<br />
Arizona Cactus League Baseball Golf, Dining and More!<br />
by “JB” Griffin<br />
“Every <strong>Spring</strong> I look forward to making the 6-7 hour drive from Orange County, CA to take in a few days in and around the<br />
Phoenix area for meeting up with friends. The Buzz in Scottsdale in the <strong>Spring</strong> is awesome. So much to do. <strong>Spring</strong> Training<br />
Baseball games, World Class Golf Courses, resorts and amazing restaurants busy with patrons from across the USA and beyond.<br />
If you have never been to a <strong>Spring</strong> Training Baseball game it is something to put on your bucket list.<br />
<strong>Spring</strong> training is something the entire family will enjoy. I love to visit Old Scottsdale and see all the baseball fans who make the<br />
trip to Arizona. It’s great to see the visitors to Arizona sporting their favorite teams baseball cap and jerseys while enjoyng all that<br />
Old Town Scottsdale has to offer which includes outdoor patio bars, restaurants, gift shops and the San Francisco Giants Stadium .<br />
When in Scottsdale be sure to explore the town of Cave Creek, Az and of course visit Harold’s Corral the Famous<br />
Bar/Restaurant in Cave Creek which I highly recommend. If you are a golfer be sure to bring your sticks on your trip to Zona.<br />
Lots of challenging beautiful courses in and around Scottsdale including the TPC course, home of the Waste Management Phoenix<br />
Open one of the most popular events on the PGA Tour.” - “JB” Griffin, Publisher <strong>Sunset</strong> <strong>Beach</strong> Mag<br />

Obey all posted warnings at<br />
the beach. The single best<br />
thing you can do to avoid ever<br />
seeing a shark is to simply pay<br />
attention to any and all safety<br />
information at the beach. Heed<br />
any posted signs and listen to<br />
the instructions of authority<br />
figures like lifeguards, beach<br />
patrol personnel, and park<br />
rangers. Be Safe !<br />

Rancho Manana Golf Club<br />
Cave Creek, AZ<br />
by Gum Gummy<br />
Arizona Golf Courses in <strong>Spring</strong> are some of<br />
the most scenic best courses to play on the<br />
planet. Having played many of the Arizona<br />
Courses over the years on our Annual visits i<br />
must say that the course at Rancho Manana<br />
is one of my favorites. The close although<br />
is plays only 5407 from the White Tees and<br />
6016 is a test for golfers if all levels. The<br />
views from the course are spectacular. The<br />
#1 Handicap Hole on the course Hole #4<br />
is a hole that defines a tough hole in golf .<br />
you have to play it to feel it. After enjoying<br />
hopefully a great round of Golf another perk<br />
i love at rancho Manana is the 19th Hole for<br />
Lunch or Dinner that being the Tonto Bar<br />
and Grill<br />
Experience Rancho Mananaa !<br />
