The target participants for the Golf and Life Skills Training Facility project are the 800-plus current Life Skills Learning Clinic participants First Tee serves annually in Escambia and Santa Rosa Counties, as well as an underserved at-need community of young people ages 5-18 in the Warrington Area. The Golf and Life Skills Training Facility project will impact the target population by adding personal growth and development opportunities for existing participants (of whom 34% are minority and 39% female) and by attracting new participants from the Warrington at-need demographic. First Tee will use the mini-golf facility as an introductory point to teach real golf skills and more importantly, life skills and character education. Third party researchers have shown that Life Skills Learning Experience participants perform better academically with the instillation of proper values. The First Tee believes this facility will create a community asset that is both a means to an improved way of life for area youth and a point of pride as a model of historic preservation. The organization plans to offer the full facility for field trip, community groups, limited community play days, and for private event rentals that will generate revenue to be used in The First Tee programs. First Tee personnel desire for this facility to tangibly produce young people who are both good citizens and practitioners of a lifetime sport, rooted in the nine core values of The First Tee.
