I believe community service provides opportunities and experiences for character development, networking and academic growth. Community Service is something that needs to be done. The desire to act comes from a pride, caring and respect for a community. When an individual goes out in the world and interacts with other people in the spirit of bettering, that individual makes a contribution and will feel a sense of accomplishment. Community Service provides a foundation for personal growth in and out of the golf industry.
