Women's Golf Association of Longboat Key celebrates the holidays

A sea of red, green, grinches and Dolly Partons could be seen on the Longboat Key Club Golf course on the morning of Dec. 10.

"That is probably my favorite part about the Frosty Frolic," said Noreen Geer. "I'm always wondering what people are thinking when they turn their heads on Gulf of Mexico Drive and see us all dressed in our festive and kooky outfits."

The Women's Golf Association of Longboat Key and the Key-Niners partnered together for their annual festive event, the Frosty Frolic, on this Tuesday. As they donate for Toys for Tots, the ladies use the charitable event to do their favorite things: dress up, golf and spend time with their best friends. 

"Holly, Jolly, Dolly" was one group's inspirations since three of their women are from Nashville. The ladies wore blonde wigs, big sunglasses and outfits with pink accents. Last year, they dressed like Elvis Presley.

Another group took inspiration from the Grinch and wore Grinch-themed sweaters and caps. Others went simple with matching sweaters, reindeer ears, scarves and red and green outfits.

This is one of two events the golf groups attend together. The other one is "Go for a Cure," which raises money for breast cancer research. Many players said their favorite part of these events is getting to know players from each of the groups.

"It was really nice to see everyone all here," said Rosealie Bergman. "We go all out with our outfits and it is cool to see everyone come together for a good cause."
