⛳️ WACO, LET’S TEE IT UP THIS WEDNESDAY! ☕️
This week at The Meetup, we’re excited to welcome Rafael Rodrigues, Founder & CEO of Swing Golf Club!
A Waco native and Midway graduate, Rafael’s entrepreneurial journey has taken him from co-founding and growing USA Sod into a multimillion-dollar company to successfully exiting the business and eventually bringing his experience and passion for entrepreneurship back home to Waco.
Today, he’s building something new with Swing Golf Club, a state-of-the-art indoor golf experience centered around technology, training, competition, and most importantly COMMUNITY. ⛳️
For Rafael, entrepreneurship is about more than building successful businesses. It’s about creating something meaningful, serving people well, building relationships, and making an impact in the community he calls home.
Come hear his story, make a new connection, and start your Wednesday with some of Waco’s best entrepreneurs, small business owners, and community leaders!
