Front Royal, VA– The Peggy Kirk Bell Girls’ Golf Tour headed north for the first of three events in the DMV for the Blue Ridge Girls Classic at Bowling Green Country Club in Front Royal, Virginia. The Bowling Green Country Club North Course, nestled in the northern neck of the Shenandoah Valley, features a picturesque backdrop of the Blue Ridge Mountains and a landscape dotted by historic 19th-century farmhouses. The Blue Ridge Girls Classic, the second event in the Prep Preview National schedule, welcomed thirty competitors between the Prep Preview and Futures National divisions to the Shenandoah Valley. Residents of North Carolina, Maryland, and Virginia are represented in this weekend’s field vying for bids to the National Tournament of Champions hosted in early December.
