The Northern Ohio Professional Golfers Association (NOPGA) is conducting free lessons for Active Duty Military personnel and Veterans through a program introduced by the PGA of America.

PGA HOPE (Helping Our Patriots Everywhere) is the flagship military program of PGA REACH and is designed to enhance the physical, mental, social and emotional health of the men and women who have served our country so valiantly, while learning the great game of golf.

 

Funded by the PGA of America, the 6-to-8 week program, conducted by PGA members trained in adaptive golf and military cultural competency, is free to all Veterans and active personnel.

 

Clearview Golf Club Head Professional and Hall of Fame member, Renee Powell, is the reason that HOPE was brought to Northern Ohio. U.S. Army Veteran Hollis Burkes is the Northern Ohio PGA HOPE Ambassador, taking the lead on encouraging Veterans to sign up for the program.

 

Currently, there are 11 PGA HOPE sites throughout Northern Ohio. They are part of 162 programs across the country.  Click Here to register and to view more information on the Northern Ohio PGA website.
