Arnold Palmer Plaque/Rancho Park Golf Course

PUT YOUR NAME ON A PIECE OF LOS ANGELES GOLF HISTORY AND MAKE AN INVESTMENT IN CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMS FOR YOUTH Arnold Palmer Plaque/Rancho Park Golf Course Donor Campaign runs from November 2019 – March 2020 INDIVIDUAL DONORS: $500 (75 spots available) CORPORATIONS/FOUNDATIONS/ORGANIZATIONS: $1000 (25 spots available) Per our agreement with the City, your name will remain on the plaque for a duration of three years HISTORY OF THE ARNOLD PALMER PLAQUE In 1961, during the Los Angeles Open, Arnold Palmer, “The King”, famously took a 12 on the 9th hole of the Rancho Park Golf Course. Mr. Palmer considers this event the 21st most memorable moment of his life. In 1963, The Los Angeles Junior Chamber of Commerce (the parent organization of The First Tee of Los Angeles) commemorated this un-Palmer-like score with a stunning 2-plate bronze plaque. In 2017, First Tee of Los Angeles, along with the City of Los Angeles Department of Recreation and Parks, replaced the stone plaque with a replica of the 1963 original and added a third plaque recognizing 100 donors who are committed to the sustainability of junior golf programs for underserved youth of Los Angeles County. THE FIRST TEE OF LOS ANGELES For more than 30 years, TFTLA has been providing youth development sports programs to underserved youth, ages 6 to 18, that build character, instill life-enhancing values, and promote healthy choices. TFTLA is not a typical junior golf program. While those exist and focus on helping youth become great golfers, we stand out because our goal is very different. We target youth living in underserved communities of Los Angeles and while a handful of our youth do become great golfers, 100% become great kids who can demonstrate our Nine Core Values™ (Honesty, Integrity, Sportsmanship, Respect, Confidence, Responsibility, Perseverance, Courtesy, and Judgment) in all aspects of their lives.

Golf Courses Emerge As a Fix for LA's Affordable Housing Crisis
9/14/2020 Golf Courses May Be L.A.'s Affordable Housing Fix - Bloomberg Golf Courses Emerge as a Fix for L.A.’s Affordable Housing Crisis A Los Angeles architect argues that the solution to the city’s housing woes might lie on the 18th green. Urban golfers don’t agree. Anthony DiMauro September 11, 2020, 4:00 AM PDT Housing-starved Los Angeles maintains the largest municipal golf system in the United States. Should some of that land be used for something else? Photographer: Patrick T. Fallon/Bloomberg The Rancho Park Golf Course is an 18-hole, par 71 municipal course in the affluent West L.A. neighborhood of Cheviot Hills, near Century City. The greens used to be the domain of a private club, but became part of a Los Angeles city park after World War II. It’s the former home of the PGA’s Los Angeles Open, and site of a handful of memorable golf milestones, including, in 1969, https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2020-09-11/golf-courses-may-be-l-a-s-affordable-housing-fix 1/7 9/14/2020 Golf Courses May Be L.A.'s Affordable Housing Fix - Bloomberg the second tour victory for Charlie Siffords, the first African-American pro to play on the PGA tour. “It’s a really pretty park,” says Dermot Connell, an L.A. golfer who is very involved in the city’s municipal circuit and serves as a Rancho Park board member. “From almost every point at Rancho, you can get a perspective of the city.

HAIRY GOLF BALLS: From 1486 through 1618, the Scottish received and used the hairy golf ball imported from the Netherlands. The hairy golf ball was a hand-sewn round leath- er ball filled with cows’ hair or straw. In 1554 the hairy golf ball was being produced in Scot- land by the “cordiners and gouff ball makers of North Leith.” These balls continued to be used even after the introduction of the feathe- rie golf ball in 1618 because they were less ex- pensive, thus becoming known as the ‘com- mon’ ball.
