The Pitstop Golf Trail & PGA HOPE

 The Pitstop Golf Trail is deeply committed to supporting our active military and veterans through its association with the PGA HOPE (Helping Our Patriots Everywhere) program. Here's how we contribute:

• Preferred Membership Rates: We offer special discounted membership rates for both active military personnel and veterans, recognizing their service by making golf more accessible.
• PGA HOPE Program Engagement: Our facilities are actively involved in the PGA HOPE initiative, which is dedicated to enhancing the physical, mental, social, and emotional well-being of veterans and active duty military through golf. Our programs include a developmental 6-8 week curriculum led by PGA Professionals trained in adaptive golf techniques and military cultural competency, ensuring that every participant can benefit from the therapeutic aspects of golf.
• Certified Professionals: Our founder, Paul Tretter, PGA, along with all our PGA Professionals engaged in our HOPE programming, are PGA HOPE certified. This certification ensures they are equipped to provide tailored golf instruction that addresses the unique needs of veterans and active military members.
• No-Cost Programming: Through our partnership with PGA HOPE, all programs are funded so that there is no cost to veterans, emphasizing our commitment to giving back to those who have served.
• Community and Camaraderie: Beyond just teaching golf, our programs foster a sense of community and camaraderie among participants, providing a social network that can be vital for mental health and transitioning back to civilian life.

Our dedication to the military community is a core part of our mission, aiming to make a positive impact through the sport we love.
