Golf and community involvement are two areas the Country Club of North Carolina prides itself in, and the club is preparing to start a youth caddie program that will embody both.
CCNCâs youth caddies will be a part of the Evans Scholars Foundation, which has a scholarship program that has sent more than 11,000 students to college on full-ride scholarships since its inception in 1930.
âThe club has a long history of trying to be a good neighbor,â said Jeff Dotson, the clubâs PGA Director of Golf.
âI think itâs a natural tie-in with golf and trying to help young kids gain some exposure to the game, while they are able to make a little bit of money. Especially with the potential opportunity with a scholarship, I think itâs kind of a no-brainer in that sense.â
