The Ghetto Golfers of St Louis has been in existing for six years and currently have thirty members. We plan to grow to fifty members and hold at that number.
The Ghetto Golfers of St Louis was founded in December, 2001 by a small group of golfers that had been playing together for a few years. One night at a Roy Ayers show in November, one of the golfers decided to have us take a group picture. One of the other players scanned the picture and put an overlay on it that stated the Ghetto Golfers. That how we got the name and in December we organized. |
To play golf is to be blessed with the rarest of gifts: to walk in beauty, to enjoy fine companionship and to discover the true essence of living with every swing.
Ghetto
1. A usually poor section of a city inhabited primarily by people of the same race, religion, or social background, often because of discrimination.
2. An often walled quarter in a European city to which Jews were restricted beginning in the Middle Ages.
3. Something that resembles the restriction or isolation of a city ghetto: "trapped in ethnic or pink-collar managerial job ghettoes" (Diane Weathers).
