Patriot Golf Day® 2008
More than 3,600 PGA-staffed facilities participated in the second annual Patriot Golf Day® in 2008. Golfers nationwide were asked to donate a minimum of $1 to benefit the Folds of Honor Foundation® to provide post secondary educational scholarships for children and spouses of military service men and women killed or disabled while serving our great nation. Patriot Golf Day has raised more than $3 million dollars in the past two years.
