Audubon Green Golfer Challenge
The Audubon Green Golfer Challenge is a way for
golf courses to encourage their golfers to take the
Green Golfer Pledge, as
a simple way to
support environmental stewardship while playing
golf and
carry on the sport's
venerable tradition of preserving the
nature of the game. Equally important,
it helps golf make a positive difference in the
quality of our environment for present and
future generations.
Get Involved!
The Green Golfer Challenge is open to all golf
facilities.
Sign on today
and encourage golfers at your course to take the Audubon Green Golfer Pledge. Golfers in the U.S., Canada,
and worldwide are invited to sign the free
pledge online, or
via a
pledge sheet that you make
available at your golf course.
