Nationwide Insurance Supports PTWA

Nationwide Insurance donated $1,000 to the Nationwide Tour/PGA TOUR Wives Association at a luncheon held during the Athens Regional Foundation Classic. The check was presented by Nationwide representative Sonya Kim. The Nationwide Tour Wives were pleased to accept this very generous donation to our organization as Nationwide Insurance continues their on-going support of our charitable endeavors. The donation kicks off the Nationwide Tour Wives year as we begin planning for volunteer service projects and fundraising for both local and national charities. Thank you, Nationwide Insurance, for your continued support of our efforts and our mission.

Great Lakes Adaptive Sports Association

The PGA Tour Wives Association Nationwide TOUR, visited the (GLASA) Great Lakes Adaptive Sports Association on Wednesday June 8 during the La Salle Bank Open tournament. Cindy Housner, the executive director of the organization, welcomed the wives with open arms, a lot of water and snacks because it was a very warm day in Chicago. Thirteen wives participated in this charity event and enjoyed playing tennis with three talented tennis players just happened to be in wheelchairs. GLASA provides opportunities for people of all ages to participate in sports activities such as water skiing, soccer, golf, tennis, snow skiing and fishing. Cindy pointed out to the wives that they have programs for wheelchair bound, disabled and seeing-impaired individuals. Cindy also taught us that GLASA is doing its best to promote healthy lifestyles and it seems like they are accomplishing a lot of smiles, as well.
