Second year girl’s golf coach Samantha Miestowski worked in conjunction with
Assistant Executive Director, Autumn Strong, to initiate the process. By working with
Indiana Golf, J & M Golf, and Board President, Glenn Johnson of Lake Ridge School Corporation, Tony Lane secured the right price, and all of the donors helped facilitate the young players with the best equipment possible. The Clicgear 4.0 carts have a $2,500 retail value. This acquisition is a major game changer for not only the girl’s golf team, but all for the boy’s golf team as both teams share all their equipment.
None of this would be possible without five hardworking freshmen, including: Neveah and Nivea Anderson, Kayla Congress, Elizabeth Schouten, Lillian Tortolano, Principal, Mr. Bajmakovich, Athletic Director, Kuntarich, and Assistant Coach, Racyne Johnson. These five push carts will certainly attract and grow the golf program in this region.
In his 25 years of being in the golf business, retailer Tony Lane stated, “You were the only school to my knowledge that has ever done any fundraising like this for a high school golf program.” On behalf of the Calumet Girl’s Golf Team, we sincerely, appreciate the support for the continued growth of the game of golf at our school.
