When we give children a spirit for the game (thank you ) we give them a world of opportunities and in MY experience the learning is wayyyyyyy deeper.

This partnership has been 4 years in the making and it’s finally landed. Thanks for your hard work in making this happen . Your PGM students are going to make great things happen with these children and I couldn’t be more honored to be a part of it.
Together we are growing children and giving PGM students the tools to be able to affect the lives of more and more children though connection, PLAY, belonging, creativity and yes, golf.
This is Birdie Basics™️
