Toys For Tots
‘Tis the season to open not just our hearts but also our wallets. Toys for Tots, a program created by the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve, seeks to bring joy to underprivileged children during the holiday season. It holds a special place in the heart of our Golf Pro, Chuck Kandt. Established in 1947, this charitable endeavor collects new, unwrapped toys and distributes them to economically disadvantaged children nationwide. Recognized for its compassion and generosity, Toys for Tots has become a symbol of goodwill. Look for those iconic Toys for Tots boxes positioned just outside our Pro Shop - they may be mere toys to us, but they mean the world to a less fortunate child.
Tennis Anyone?
Tennis has a long and complex history. Its roots date back to 19th-century England. Major Walter Clopton Wingfield is often credited with popularizing lawn tennis. In 1874, the first tennis courts with a rectangular shape and a net were set up at the Marylebone Cricket Club in London. These courts closely resembled the four modern tennis courts you’ll find here at TGO. But the best part is the fun-loving members of our TGO Tennis Club. Exercise is a major component to the sport of tennis, but it also provides a great opportunity to socialize and connect with new and old friends. Our club is always looking for new members. See page 34 on how to become involved.
