FCA Golf's TobyMac Junior Golf Camp


Dear Mulligan Society,

What a week it was in Southern Pines, NC at Pine Needles Lodge & Golf Club, July 15-19!  FCA Golf's Toby Mac Junior Golf Camp had a total of 38 campers from Arizona, California, Illinois, Indiana, Louisiana, Maryland, Missouri, Nebraska, North & South Carolina, Ohio, Tennessee, Texas & West Virginia.  11 of these youth were past campers, having attended FCA Golf Camp at least once before.  Campers bettered their golf games, grew in their relationship with Jesus Christ and had plenty of fun while doing it!  Click the following links to see the TobyMac Golf Camp Schedule and Brochure.

Without a doubt one of the things that makes this camp very special is TobyMac (and his band) being at camp with us during the week.  Most people don't know that Toby grew up playing the game and helped start his college golf team at Liberty University.  In addition to Toby, Adam Agee (lead singer of Stellar Kart) spent the week with us leading music with Toby, and Kenn Kington, taught as our chaplain for the week.

As I mentioned in a prior post, I was very excited to change up my role and responsibilities at this camp.  In addition to being one of the golf instructors for the week, I served in the role of Huddle Leader Coordinator.  It was my job to serve and pour into the Huddle Leaders (3 males, 1 female), so that they could do the same with the campers they were responsible for.

Some of you may know that Pine Needles Lodge & Golf Club was where FCA Golf Camps began in 1979.  After having spent a week there, I can absolutely see why.  The facility is certainly special.  But behind the facility is the staff that operates it.  I can't say enough about the Pine Needles staff.  Every one of them was sincerely eager to serve and do whatever was needed, all with a smile on their face!
