First Tee - Benton Harbor

First Tee - Benton Harbor Building Game Changers. Experiences are our greatest teacher.

First Tee believes in developing the ones that are just as fun as they are meaningful, where kids feel excited to grow, safe to fail, and better equipped for whatever comes their way next. Through our golf-based personal growth programs, we see kids build life and leadership skills that empower them in all areas of life, including school, friendships and eventually careers.

It is not every day we get royalty stopping by the office. Yesterday, Mya and Rileigh dropped by to help us get things ready for our upcoming Scholarship Dinner. We could not be more proud of their Blossomtime journey and everything they represent for our community. Congratulations to Mya, Miss Spirit 2026, and Rileigh, 2026 Miss St. Joseph 2nd Runner-Up. We cannot wait to see what the future holds for both of these incredible young leaders.

These kids did not just show up. They earned this.

Our upcoming graduating scholars are a truly special group. Over the years, they have put in countless hours of hard work, shown incredible resilience, and consistently done all the right things on and off the course. They represent the absolute best of our community, and we cannot wait to see what they accomplish next in this world.

Now, it is our turn to show up for them.

Let us pack the room at The Inn at Harbor Shores so they can look out from the stage and see a community that completely believes in their future.

Tickets are 75 dollars, and every single purchase directly funds their next chapter. Let us fill every single seat for these incredible young leaders.

Final ticket sales close this Sunday at 12 PM EST so we can finalize our numbers. Please do not wait. Secure your spot today.

NATIONAL SELECTION! ✈️⛳️ Please join us in sending a massive congratulations to Lily for being selected to attend the First Tee Game Changers Academy Honoring Joe Louis Barrow, Jr. in Minneapolis this July!

To put into perspective how hard Lily worked for this: First Tee chapters across the country submit applications for their top teen leaders, and only 72 participants nationwide are chosen.

This transformative five-day event focuses on inclusive leadership, self-awareness, and community building. Lily’s selection is a direct reflection of her incredible character, dedication, and the leadership she shows every day right here at our chapter.

Lily, your First Tee – Benton Harbor family could not be prouder. We can't wait to see you bring these skills back to our community!

What a Saturday!

We got outside for our very first session of the Spring season, and it was everything we hoped it would be. After a long winter, there's something truly special about watching our young golfers return to the course, full of energy, full of heart, and ready to grow.

We're so grateful for this community. For the kids who show up with big smiles. For the families who support them. And for the moments that remind us why First Tee is so much more than golf!
