Thank you, volunteers

Your time and heart make our mission possible

To every volunteer who has shown up, given their time, and poured their heart into our young people — thank you. Words can hardly capture the depth of our gratitude.

The hours you dedicate and the care you bring help shape the lives of the next generation, on and off the golf course. Because of you, our kids are learning more than a sport — they’re building character, confidence, and a foundation for life.

(Published 4/20/26) National Volunteer Week, celebrated annually in April, serves as a powerful reminder of the profound impact that selfless service has on communities across the country and around the world. Founded in 1974 in the United States, it is a time dedicated to recognizing and honoring the millions of individuals who generously give their time, talents, and energy to causes greater than themselves. The week holds deep significance not only because it shines a spotlight on the tireless work of volunteers, but also because it actively inspires others to get involved, cultivating a culture of civic engagement and compassion. Volunteering strengthens the social fabric of communities, fills critical gaps in services that governments and organizations alone cannot meet, and fosters a sense of belonging and shared purpose among people of diverse backgrounds. Ultimately, National Volunteer Week is a celebration of humanity at its most generous.
