The starter at Wintergreen announced the next tee time, including four generations of men from the Lewis family, including the 75-year old patriarch. Last year, this septuagenarian golfer recorded his fourth hole-in-one, this time on Wintergreen’s exceptional Stoney Creek Course, a Rees Jones design. Earlier this year, his son, himself a grandfather, recorded his first hole-in-one on the very same hole during Wintergreen’s father-son tournament.
Today, however, the four generations are out for just a leisurely eighteen. Four generations playing together is one of the traditions they’ve created, since the great-grandparents moved to RoseWood Village at Wintergreen, a retirement living community built within the Wintergreen master planned community in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia.
“Wintergreen offers a four season resort, skiing through golf,” explains Shareef Tahboub, Development Director at RoseWood. “So one reason seniors move here is because they know their children will want to visit.”
