VACAVILLE, CA – The Northern California PGA Foundation is pleased to announce Patriot Golf Day, which is being held Labor Day Weekend (Sept. 3-5). It is the flagship fundraiser for the Folds of Honor Foundation, a nonprofit organization that provides scholarships for the children and spouses of military men and women disabled or killed while serving our nation. During Patriot Golf Day, golfers of participating public facilities are typically asked to add an extra dollar to their greens fees to fund Folds of Honor scholarships. Private golf facilities often design their own programs to raise money including raffles, closest to the pin contests, and more.
“We encourage both new and long-time golfers to come out for Patriot Golf Day. It’s also a great way for families to enjoy the outdoors and each other, while contributing to a worthwhile cause,” said Chris Thomas, executive director of the NCPGA Foundation.
