Meridian Valley Country Club recently announced the results of a fundraiser to bring the First Tee National School Program to the Kent (Wash.) School District. During a "Realize the Dream" fundraiser, the club's members raised $104,000 to help launch the program in Kent's 28 elementary schools. Meridian Valley is the first private club in the United States to give support to a local school district in this manner.

I recently had the opportunity to play the new Tetherow Golf course in Bend, Ore. Designed by Scottish-born David McLay Kidd, the course has been advertised as a "pure links" golf experience.
