One of the things I really appreciate about ParaGolf Ontario is that we get the opportunity to play at many different golf courses across Ontario. It is wonderful to experience new courses, meet new people, and play in different environments throughout the season. Many of the courses we visit are also very accessible and welcoming to adaptive golfers. Having courses that understand accessibility and make an effort to accommodate golfers with different needs makes such a big difference. Thank you to ParaGolf Ontario for creating these opportunities and continuing to grow adaptive golf in Ontario. I am proud to be part of this community and look forward to many more rounds and memories! 🇨🇦⛳️
