JNJG Junior AM Raises $8,500


Thanks to the help of generous sponsors and golf clubs JNJG and Golf NSW managed to raise $8,500 to develop junior golf in the host region of the Subaru State Championships.  This is the second year JNJG has hosted this event and it is a promising sign for the future with participants, sponsors and local club members enjoying a great day out.
