Youth golf is important in our community and we are very proud of Lady Vaqs. For the full story, check out "Vaqueros make it a first".
"Here is a classic example of a move to identify a golf course for its environmental and community values. The thing I find most resonant is that this powerful statement is coming from someone other than us."
