A fairly steady stream of golfers approached the window of the pro shop at Shennecossett Golf Course on a sunny, comfortable Wednesday morning.
Tim Sisk greeted each one from his spot inside, taking payment and answering questions. No golfers are allowed in the shop. Scorecards are in a box outside along with hand sanitizer.
Business is hopping at the Groton course as well as others in the area during these challenging times.
