F.M. Law Park Shootout Fundraising Tournament
On Monday, September 29, 2025, supporters gathered for a day of golf, food, and beverages, and heard about HGA’s capital campaign to make necessary improvements to F. M. Law Park. All proceeds from the event went toward supporting the youth of First Tee – Greater Houston as part of our F. M. Law Park Capital Campaign. Thanks to our lunch and beverage sponsors – Evan McMillen, Chris Walker, and Michael Kaufman – for another great Shootout event!
“First Tee has taught me so many great things—it’s been amazing for me and my family. I’m now a Business Marketing major at Central Oklahoma, playing golf. My parents didn’t attend college, so I wasn’t familiar with the ACT, SAT, or the recruiting process. First Tee has helped me and guided me, from national opportunities to getting fitted for clubs. I was lost without First Tee, and I wouldn’t be the young man I am today, and I definitely wouldn’t be playing college golf. Big shout-out to F.M. Law Park because I grew up playing here.”

First Tee to Receive $50,000 from Former U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice
Chevron has announced a donation of $100,000, in honor of former U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, to be shared equally among Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Houston and First Tee – Greater Houston. Rice, the 66th U.S. Secretary of State, received this honor as the recipient of the inaugural Dinah Award, established by Chevron and Golf Digest this year to recognize individuals who have demonstrated the same attributes that helped Dinah Shore make The Chevron Championship a beacon for women in sport. Rice directed the entire amount toward two Houston nonprofits that share her belief in the transformative power of sport and mentorship.
F.M. Law Park Capital Campaign
F.M. Law Park spans 2,473 yards of natural turf at Houston’s only nine-hole municipal golf club for kids of all skill levels. The park is in an underserved part of the community and positively impacts thousands of youth annually through First Tee – Greater Houston – a program that builds character, instills life-enhancing values and promotes healthy choices through the game of golf.
As a supporter, you’re investing in the future of Houston’s youth. Thank you for your continued generosity, which helps us create a space where mentorship, growth, and community thrive.
