Aloha Section PGA Raises over $10,000 for Patriot Golf Day
The Aloha Section PGA is pleased to announce that over Labor Day Weekend over twenty-two (22) golf facilities from across the State and their customers helped raise over $10,000 in support of Patriot Golf Day.
Golf facilities asked patrons to donate $1 or however much they would like to contribute over the Labor Day holiday weekend. Each facility offered different promotions to drive interest in this noteworthy cause. Ko Olina offered a free clinic and giveaways, while Turtle Bay had a drawing for a commemorative Patriot Golf Day TaylorMade Driver. The Dunes at Maui Lani extended special rates to all “First Responders” throughout the month of September.

Patriot Golf Day is a joint initiative of The PGA of America and the United States Golf Association which benefits the Folds of Honor Foundation (FoldsofHonor.org). Sparked by the vision and dedication of Major Dan Rooney, an F-16 fighter pilot, PGA Professional, and USGA member, Patriot Golf Day has spurred golfers nationwide to contribute over $1 million last year for scholarships that have since been awarded to spouses and children of our military heroes who were either seriously disabled or lost their lives in the line of duty.
For a complete list of facilities and for more information about how you can get involved with Patriot Golf Day or to make a contribution to the Folds of Honor Foundation, visit PatriotGolfDay.com or foldsofhonor.org.
The people associated with the great game of golf have made a lasting commitment to back the charitable causes through the years, so the Aloha Section and all of Hawaii’s golfing communities are delighted to be able to support Patriot Golf Day.
