AARP turns to golf to unite grandparents with grandkids

June 16, 2001 By admin

The Iowa chapter of an agency that tries to enrich the lives of older people is promoting a statewide Grandparent/Grandchild Golf Festival. A-A-R-P state director Bruce Koeppl says participants can play a round of golf on any course in Iowa over the next month.Koeppl says the golf festival is not a tournament and people aren’t competing for the best score. All registered participants get some nice bonuses for taking part and will be registered for a free set of tickets to the Senior P-G-A Tour event in Des Moines this fall.Golfers can call the A-A-R-P office to register at (515) 267-8956 or go online to the website at “www.aarpia.org” to register electronically.Koeppl says the grandparent/grandchild teams can even play a round of miniature golf. The goal is just to get the generations out together and enjoying themselves.
