A MESSAGE FROM DICK HORTON
President, Tennessee Golf Foundation
The Tennessee Golf Foundation, or TGF, gives young people the opportunity to play golf in a structured junior golf programs and that makes them 50% more likely to become an adult golfer. While learning the game as a junior, young players learn a physical activity as well as a set of positive values and traditions that stay with them for the balance of their lives. The TGF’s programs are designed to provide affordable and enjoyable opportunities for all golfers with any level of experience.
When the TGF was established in 1991, getting more children to learn the game and its life-enriching values was a major goal. Since Golf House Tennessee was built in 1995, there has been a five-fold increase in the number of juniors actively participating in Foundation golf programs over a five-year period.
A strong TGF annual fund and endowment will help the foundation succeed in achieving its goals now while guaranteeing that its programs are always available and affordable to all that want to participate while keeping Golf House Tennessee a permanent part of the state’s golf landscape. Thank you for your support!
Best regards,
Dick Horton
