Over the past 14 years, I am proud to say that the fundraiser has raised $1.86M for various children s charities in the area thanks in part to people like you. This year, we will be conducting our fundraiser here at the club on Tuesday, September 5. Your donation will benefit the Northern Texas PGA Junior Golf Foundation s Growth of the Game initiatives and also Cook Children s Hospital. Please know that your consideration of support enables the Northern Texas PGA Junior Golf Foundation to continue our mission of growing the game of golf and introducing it to a wide range of kids in North Texas while instilling in them the positive, character developing traits for which our great game is so well known. This year, the Northern Texas PGA Junior Golf Foundation has over 4,000 members (many from our club), will conduct over 400 grass roots tournaments and awarded $265,000.00 in scholarships, all of which are record breaking numbers. Your donation is 100% tax deductible. Please note: All pledges should ideally be made on or before Monday, September 4.
