FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Pat Green Honored for His Contribution to Texas School for the Deaf’s Golf Program
PAT GREEN AND THE AUSTIN SERTOMA CLUB ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR SCHOOL’S
FIRST GOLF PROGRAM SINCE 1991
Austin, Texas FEBRUARY 6, 2009 Singer/songwriter Pat Green not only
touches people all over the world with his music, he is changing the
lives of deaf and hard of hearing children right here in Texas.
Green’s keyboardist, Clayton Ryder Corn – who also happens to be
a member of the Austin Sertoma Club – mentioned that the club was
undertaking a project to start a golf program at the Texas School for
the Deaf (TSD). Because of his own passion for the sport of golf,
Green, and long-time friend Tom Kelly, jumped in to join the crusade.
While Austin Sertoman’s worked to raise money to install a complete
practice green on the school’s campus, Green and Kelly surprised TSD
with complete sets of new golf equipment for the students.
Today at noon, TSD honors the Austin Sertoma Club, Pat Green and Tom
Kelly during a dedication ceremony of the new Ranger golf program.
While busy promoting his new album, Green still tries to find time to
unwind on the golf course as often as he can. A competitor at heart,
Green himself won the BMW Pro Am two years ago and hopes to make a
similar showing later this month when he competes at the Pro Am in
Pebble Beach.
Because of the kindness and generosity of the Austin Sertoma Club,
Pat Green and Tom Kelly, students at TSD are now getting exposure to a
sport they have not had the opportunity to experience in almost twenty
years. The school is now on target to have a competitive golf team in
2009-2010.
With a strong belief in culture and community at the Texas School for
the Deaf, students form a unique identity based on their individual
strengths and talents. At TSD, students learn, grow, and belong. For
