The PGA Tour know for many years as the Bob Hope Classic has Partnered with the William J Clinton The tournament announced major changes to the event structure. The event was shortened to four days to better follow other PGA Tour events. The courses are now only at three La Quinta courses. The courses are located at La Quinta Country Club and the Palmer and Nicklaus Courses at PGA West.
Also they are reducing the number of Celebrity players to 12-18 . So far it was announced Morgan Freeman and Don Cheadle are confirmed to play .
PGA West is a very popular place to purchase homes in the Desert Area and I have many clients that love living at PGA West!
So if you would like to see some homes or tour the club just give me a call.

I can play tennis at Palm Desert Tennis Club in the morning and be at the BNP Paribas Open in Indian Wells in 15 minutes !!

Looking at these numbers you better think about booking a room early if you can still find something available.

Palm Desert New Aquatic Center
The Desert Sun reported about 14,000 people have passed through the gate of Palm Desert's new aquatic center since it opened three and a half weeks ago. In addition money is spent on food at the concession stand. . My husband and I took a walk around the scenic Palm Desert park and stopped by to look at the pool about 7:00 pm one night . We found children sliding down the slides , water polo matches, and areas where you can swim laps. The entrance of Palm trees is so very impressive so if you are in the area make sure you stop by .
Daily admission to the center, at 73-751 Magnesia Falls Drive, ranges from $2.50 to $6, depending on age and if you are a resident of Palm Desert. The Y also sells pool passes that range in price from $94 for a 25-use card to $825 for an adult annual pass for nonresidents.
What a wonderful addition to Palm Desert and the valley !! .

March Madness in the Desert
March Madness is here in the desert !! Indian Wells is busy with the BNP Paribas Open tennis tournament bringing in fans from all over the world. I took a break from showing real estate, took in some great tennis and had to pleasure to meet someone from Tokyo who was in the earthquake . He has attended the tennis event for 5 years and did not miss this one even with all the problems at home. That is a true fan!
Palm Desert Tennis Club came in third for the recycled tennis balls competition and several members who won the lottery for suite tickets had a fantastic time . Yes all the food and drinks on the house . Palm Desert Tennis Club is the best kept tennis club secret in the desert and the word is getting out now . We are such an active club that offers all the tennis and social you need . .
Palm Desert Tennis Club has tennis history historic player's like Rod Laver as past owners so if you are in town give me a call to take a tour or play tennis .
BNP Paribas Open is the first tournament in the world to implement the Hawk-Eye replay technology on every one of the eight match courts. So far no other event , including the Grand Slams, can claim this distinction. New concession stands have also been added to include the Corona Plaza , Corona Beach House Bar and Vantage Point all with the purpose of enhancing the viewing experience of the fans.
So make sure you get out the the see all the action !
Not to leave out my neighborhood the Summit located in south Palm Desert which in my opinion is still one of the most desirable non gated communities in the area. We have several homes that have sold from listing prices of $649,000 to over a million . It is a golf cart ride to Ironwood Country Club or Monterra so make sure it is on your must see list for real estate.
So that is all for now have to go a friend just called with tickets for the tennis tonight !!
