We had the good fortune of connecting with Kastania Plesz and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Kastania, what was your thought process behind starting your own business?
We started our careers as PGA Professionals at private country clubs managing operations and tournaments. Organizing golf trips for our members was a way for us to enhance their lifestyle and provide unique opportunities to connect their shared passion for the game.

Over time, we realized a demand for group golf travel within communities at private clubs. We could provide the club professionals and their membership a customized golf travel experience! Pros were seeking curated golf experiences, hassle-free event planning, and the expertise we had gained through years of organizing successful outings. This realization inspired us to transform our passions into our own business.

Our Passion. Our Expertise. Your Vacation. Your Event.
