Patriot Golf Day/Folds of Honor
Did you know that funding generated through Patriot Golf Day helps fund annual PGA HOPE programming?
Please help support the most patriotic round of golf by registering your facility to support Patriot Golf Day which in turn helps fund Folds of Honor through education scholarships of military family members who have lost their loved one serving our country but also to PGA HOPE (Helping Our Patriots Everywhere) which offers free golf instruction to those who have served.
With Patriot Golf Day happening over Memorial Day Weekend (May 28 - 31), the time is now to start planning.
