Elks Lodge 271 Para-Mobilizes Callen for New York Adaptive Golf
Elks Lodge 271 recently assisted Greg Callen in his mission to enable others through the game of golf with a $2000 donation. The funds donated to Callen will be used to invest in a Paramobile Golf Cart, with a list price of $31,000.00. A Paramobile has been a need for him and New York Adaptive Golf since inception in 2021.
The Paramobile will allow New York Adaptive Golf and Callen to engage in the sport of golf, regardless of physical limitations.
Previously, to enable NYAG to host clinics or assist others, Callen would borrow equipment from Stand Up and Play Capital District, through the help of Mark Boucher and Anthony Netto.
New York Adaptive Golf is a 501C3 with all volunteer staff building local clinics and events to enable those seeking the engagement to find new opportunities through the life sport of golf!

“I have recently started a new non-profit, New York Adaptive Golf, with the mission of enabling individuals with physical and cognitive limitations to broaden their community engagement and quality of life through the use of adaptive equipment and devices with a focus on the game of golf to promote such well being. I am looking forward to seeing where this organization grows and could not do it without the support of Stone Creek Golf Course, William Weimer, Amanda Brownell, Lisa Sova, Robbie Malone, Stand Up and Play Foundation - Anthony Netto and Mark Boucher, Kristen’s Kitchen at Battle Island, our community, for that I'm eternally grateful.” - Greg Callen
