Bardmoor Golf & Tennis Club
Located at 8001 Cumberland Road, Seminole, FL 33777.
Course Overview
Voted 2019 Best Golf Course in Tampa Bay — Host Club to 13 PGA & LGPA Tour Events
Discover Why Bardmoor is a Favorite Among Tour Players – Bardmoor Golf & Tennis Club is one of the premier public golf courses in the Tampa Bay area. For more than a dozen years, our Club was the host site for the PGA/LPGA JCPenney Classic, as well as many prestigious local tournaments.
Bardmoor was founded in 1971 by Oliver Bardes, a wealthy Ohio industrialist who was an avid golfer. The present course was one of three courses designed for Bardes by William Diddle. The first rounds of golf at Bardmoor Country Club was an exhibition match with Ben Hogan and Tommy Bolt in 1971.
In 1998, Bardmoor Golf and Tennis Club opened a new 12,000-foot clubhouse. Today it features a fully stocked Golf Shop, Pizzeria & Grille, and the newly renovated event venue and outdoor patio for up to 300 guests. A Junior Olympic size pool and 16 tennis courts are among the other first-class amenities that you’ll find at Bardmoor. In 2001 Bardmoor underwent a $2 million design renovation by Gary Koch, a six-time PGA tour winner and renowned golf course architect. The greens were renovated, a new irrigation system was added and sparkling white sand was put into the bunkers.
The addition of TifEagle grass to the newly reconstructed greens has firmly established Bardmoor’s reputation for having some of the best greens in Florida. As you play, you’ll find some elevation changes and plenty of holes loaded with character. We have good sightlines on our fairways, and a great many well-tended pine trees. All our Par 3’s here are outstanding and each has something special about it. Everyone loves the shortest of them, No. 5, measuring 174 yards from the back and 115 from the forward tees. This is a picture-perfect hole with lots of appeal. It is one you will remember with its elevated green and glistening water behind the green and to the right. Bardmoor has some longer Par 3’s as well, like the 13th, measuring 225 from the back and 136 from the front tees.
Limiting Your Child’s Screen Time
Excessive screen time has been proven to interfere with cognitive ability and brain development. It has also been linked to increased levels of anxiety and negative affects on social skills and attention span. Screens should particularly be turned off when it gets closer to bedtime, as too much exposure to blue light from screens has been known to disrupt sleep patterns. We encourage that you give your child a very limited amount of screen time in general but especially during school nights. Help your child monitor their screen time and inspire them to engage in more time spent on hobbies, outside events, and creative activities. It’s very important that they’re able to function well at school and don’t always need to rely on screens to entertain them.

high school, where I trained to become an elementary school teacher. I
later attended university and graduated with a degree in Italian
language and literature. After teaching high school for 14 years, I
moved to the US, where I continued my career in tutoring and teaching at
various private language schools, working with students ranging in age
from 7 to 90 years old.
Currently, I serve as the Tutoring Director at the Community Learning
Center, where I oversee all tutoring activities for both students and
tutors.”

Fun and Fast Science Experiment for Young Kids
For this experiment, you’ll need water, a dry erase marker, and a ceramic bowl or plate.
- You start by drawing a simple character on the surface of your bowl. A stickman is a good place to start.
- Slowly pour a small amount of water onto the drawing and watch as your stickman begins to lift up off the bottom. As this happens, it will start to move on the surface of the water on its own.
- You can then use a toothpick to swirl the water around and make your stickman move and dance!
This experiment works as a great way to show density because of the ink’s insolubility to water and its low density that allows it to float.

Happy Independence Day!
Making Cursive Fun
Printing out worksheets with dotted cursive letters or words for your child to trace over is a perfect way to start practicing. This helps them get used to the flow and formation of cursive letters. You can provide themed writing prompts like favorite places or animals and have your child write about them in cursive. Encouraging creative writing while practicing cursive handwriting can make it a lot more fun. Another great way to make cursive more fun is using it in artwork like painting. Once your child gets used to the flow of the letters, they’ll be able to smoothly write cursive in no time.
Tips For Writing a Good Research Paper
Clarify the purpose of your essay. Begin your report with an introduction that provides background information on the topic and outlines the main points that you will cover. Make sure you explain why you personally chose to write about your subject. Do your own research and credit the sources that you get the information from. Collect relevant data and statistics from credible sources to support your findings. Incorporate visuals such as charts or images to help illustrate key points. Review your final report for accuracy. Check for punctuation errors, grammar, and spelling.
