RISE Adventures - Adaptive Golf Program

Great weather today or What??? It's going to be a fantastic year for the RISE golf program. Five, new, first time participants today at the North Texas Golf Center. Lots of interest from folks new to RISE, increasing interest from the "regular" RISE constituency, 18 hole regulation golf courses are interested in hosting our program and the RISE in-service programs conducted on-site at the Baylor Institute for Rehabilitation have been successful in getting people back to the golf course. Lots of quality volunteers from therapy students at UNT and TWU. A representative from Solo Rider, a single rider golf cart manufacturer in Plano, got a first hand look at the RISE mission in action today. If we need additional carts, they have volunteered to make them available during our golf events.



Check the calendar carefully. For the present, RISE golf is from 12:00 to 3:00 on Saturday's but will change during the year. RSVP is required.

Mark your calendar now for September 13th. Adventure Scuba in Plano will be sponsoring a golf tournament to benefit RISE Adventures. I'll post details as they develop.
