Members of the 3M Championship (formerly the Burnet Senior Classic), the Minnesota Golf Association and the Minnesota Section of the PGA founded the Fairway Foundation in 1993. It was recognized that there was an opportunity to bring golf to urban youth to meet a continuing need for positive youth development experiences. Today, the Fairway Foundation is an innovative community outreach program using the game of golf to make a positive difference in young people?s lives. Golf is the ?hook? to make learning fun. While successfully bringing awareness and education to the inner-city community, the Fairway Foundation?s instructional programs strive to meet the needs of all levels of junior golfers from basic instruction on through to the Careers on Course component. Emphasis is placed on integrity, honesty, respect, self-discipline, accountability, self-esteem, and conflict resolution. Participants learn that the rules of the game and life are built on these principles, such as calling penalties on one?s self. Learned through the game of golf, these values will benefit young people on a daily basis throughout their lives. Our motto is: ?Keep Kids on Course?
