For October, our monthly Flower Arranging 101 workshop at Good News takes on a little extra meaning. Join Native Poppy for a special morning of flowers, creativity, and connection in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. We’ll gather at Good News, Hillcrest’s beautifully designed non-alcoholic cocktail lounge and gathering space, to create something beautiful while supporting a cause that touches so many lives. 10% of the proceeds from every ticket to this workshop will be donated to Susan G. Komen, whose mission is to save lives by investing in breakthrough research to prevent and cure breast cancer. In this beginner-friendly workshop, you’ll learn the fundamentals of floral design while creating a lush seasonal arrangement to take home. Working with a thoughtfully curated selection of seasonal and locally grown flowers, we’ll explore flower selection, color harmony, movement, and the mechanics that help arrangements feel natural, balanced, and abundant. After the workshop, enjoy a handcrafted coffee or non-alcoholic cocktail from Good News, included with your ticket. Their thoughtful approach to hospitality and beverage-making has made them one of San Diego’s most exciting new gathering spaces. Native Poppy on Facebook / Instagram

Tractors on the course. Hay bales in the way. A toilet seat for a golf hole. This is not your typical day on the green. On Thursday, October 22, The Links at Lakehouse is shaking up the traditional golf tournament with its Greenskeeper’s Revenge Shotgun Tournament, a 4-man scramble where golfers will have to navigate challenging greens, tucked pins and some very unexpected obstacles along the way. The course has been punched, patched and put back together, and now the Greenskeeper is ready for revenge. Throughout the course, golfers will encounter a mix of obstacles made from landscaping and golf tools, tractors and mowers, flags, hay bales, a toilet seat hole and more, all strategically placed to test even the most confident golfers. The fun kicks off at 9:00 a.m. with check-in and warm-ups, followed by a 10:00 a.m. shotgun start. Teams of four will take on the course in a scramble format while also competing in Closest to the Pin and Long Drive challenges, with prizes up for grabs throughout the tournament. And because everyone could use a little help surviving the Greenskeeper’s revenge, each entry includes two mulligans, one Magic Putt, two Closest to the Pin attempts and two Long Drive attempts, along with unlimited range balls to warm up before hitting the course. Entry also includes a golf cart, tacos or a burger, one beer, a sleeve of golf balls and a Links at Lakehouse branded towel. EVENT DETAILS Greenskeeper’s Revenge Shotgun Tournament Thursday, October 22, 2026 The Links at Lakehouse | San Marcos Check-In & Warm-Up: 9:00 a.m. Shotgun Start: 10:00 a.m. Format: 4-Man Scramble Registration: $119 through October 20 View this event on Facebook
