Golf in the Park Festival highlight in 
 
Edinburgh on July 4
 
FROM BILL LOTHIAN
The second Golf in the Park Festival on the historic Meadows short-hole course in Edinburgh takes place on Saturday week (July 4). To have something golf related of this size in the heart of the city is quite rare.
Among the events are demonstrations by a renowned golf trick shot artist, Dave Edwards (see link).
There are kids' competitions, an event using hickory-shafted clubs and some more serious stuff with the prizes including tickets to the Open at St Andrews and Scottish Open at Gullane as well as four-ball tee times at Royal Dornoch and Kingsbarns to be won.
The event runs from 10am until 5.30pm and since it is just before the Scottish Open we've been told  there is a chance Stephen Gallacher will drop by to keep tabs on the work of his Foundation and Monty might also be there (Aberdeen Asset Management are sponsoring).
Jane Connachan will lead the SG kids event and Cliffe Jones (Glencorse) is first pro to offer his services.
To enter a team players are asked to contact edinburgh.golf.com@gmail.com
