The Dogwood Hills Recreation Association
A private club, The Dogwood Hills Recreation Association whisks patrons away from workday stress and into the upscale comfort of its outdoor swimming-pool and golf facilities, which include a driving range, pro shop, and nine-hole golf course. With two distinct sets of back tees, the nine-hole layout takes the form of an 18-hole, 6,447-yard, par 72 course as golfers play through its bentgrass greens, bermuda fairways, and divot-dwelling gnomes twice over. Water hazards come into play on five holes, adding to Dogwood Hills' stately scenery and moderate challenges. Golfers can groom their game or upgrade their equipment by consulting the resident aces of the full-service pro shop or bulk up for more powerful drives with a meal of savory grill fare from the Dogwood Hills Clubhouse, which offers complimentary WiFi and permits entry for 9-irons that are housebroken and leashed.
Course at a Glance:
- Nine-hole, par 36 course
- Bermuda fairways, bentgrass greens
- Course rating of 35.1 from back tees
- Slope rating of 121 from back tees

The Groupon Guide to: Wishing Opportunities
Though everyone makes wishes all the time, such as for sandwiches or for their car to not veer into a misplaced piano, very few wishes actually come true if not made via a respectable and agreed upon wishing venue. What are some reliable day-to-day opportunities for wish making?
• Wishing upon a shooting star
• Wishing upon a penny tossed into the mall fountain, or if available, mall volcano
• Wishing any time a digital clock reads 11:11, 12:34, or W1:5H
• Blowing out birthday candles, or in the event of inextinguishable “trick” candles, trimming off the wicks with scissors
• Free wish negotiated via talking fish who apparently couldn’t grant his own wish of “not getting caught in a net”
• Cracking a wishbone in half (wish is granted to the person who felt the most power at the sound of a tiny bone breaking)
• Holding your breath for as long as it takes to learn how to play the game bridge
• Earning a wish by rubbing Frasier’s head
• Working hard and staying honest while dedicating yourself to improving the skills that will allow you to act on real-world opportunities you make for yourself, and also, buying a $600 rabbit’s foot
• Making a wish every time you see a dog, tree, or car, just in case
