Today, April 24, 2024 was a wonderful day at Hiram Johnson Golf Facility Ribbon Cutting. For the past 10 years a vision was created and now a reality has begun.
Over 10 years ago the idea came about regarding bringing the golf course to the school and letting high school students have an opportunity to experience not only the game of golf but also the First Tee’s nine core values helping students grow on and off the course.
Morton Golf Foundation has been fundraising for the past four years to sustain this facility once it was completed and now, we can start doing that process.
In early April, 2024 the First Tee – Greater Sacramento began mentoring and guiding Hiram Johnson High School students in the game of golf.
As the facility continues to grow, they will be adding not only after school programs but weekend and year-round golf skills as well.
Today at the Ribbon Cutting, Principal Garrett Kirkland enhanced the event by having Hiram Johnson students attend the event to see and hear what was created for them. To kick-off the ribbon cutting we were entertained by the Hiram Johnson School Band that added to our excitement.
We all look forward as we continue to watch the Hiram Johnson Golf Facility grow!
