This opportunity is available to every school, provided they inform us in advance of the number of students and the desired date and time. We are dedicated to developing young men and women to excel in golf and sports in general.”
Acknowledging the support of Brewster’s Ice Cream and Republic Bank who partner with LGC in the past in promoting youth sports in general and golf in particular, Hackett expressed gratitude for their contributions in facilitating the development of sports programs for children.
