The First Tee
is
a youth development program that offers education, fitness, wellness and life skills
to children using golf and its inherent values as context.
Employing
activity based programming students begin to acquire life tools and skills to reinforce
what
they learn at home and in school.
Levels advance on one another and our participants have had measurable and successful
results with golf, volunteerism and educational achievement
The First Tee is a national and international program with over 500 Chapters in
the
U.S. and is recognized by private and public agencies as one of the most effective programs
in the country.
The First Tee is a 501-3c and all programs are subsidized by County facility support,
concessionaires, private and public donations.
