Invites Local Veterans with Disabilities To Learn the Game of Golf for Free
Enfield, NH — Montcalm Golf Club a premier, semi-private golf course in Enfield, New Hampshire is teaming up with PGA HOPE (Helping Our Patriots Everywhere), to introduce golf to veterans with disabilities. PGA HOPE is the flagship military program of PGA REACH, the charitable foundation of the PGA of America.
Montcalm’s PGA HOPE events begin June 22 and run for eight weeks with free instruction from 11:30-1:00 p.m.
“This is a great way to introduce golf to Veterans with disabilities to enhance their physical, mental, social and emotional well-being,” said Steve Rogers, Director of Golf at Montcalm Golf Club.
The nearby White River Junction, VT VA will bring golfers to the course and enroll veterans to the program that introduces the game of golf through a developmental 6–8-week curriculum, taught by PGA Professionals who are trained in adaptive golf and military cultural competency. All programs are funded by PGA REACH and supplemented by PGA Section Foundations, so the cost of programming is free to all Veterans.
PGA HOPE has a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), which enables Recreational Therapists to refer Veterans to the PGA HOPE program as a form of therapy. Through a robust program strategy, PGA HOPE aspires to create a physically and emotionally healthier Veteran community by shaping lives, changing lives, and possibly saving lives through the game of golf.
“Montcalm is a place of serenity and calm and a great escape for our veterans to enjoy a day of golf. The PGA HOPE program offers great instruction, and the bonus is to be in a natural surrounding with outstanding panoramic mountain views of Killington, Vermont’s Green Mountains, and Mt. Ascutney, as well as rolling hills of velvet fairways and greens,” added Rogers.
