Follow on Google News | ![]() I GOT THIS Golf Camp fosters confidence and community for adults with disabilities at TiburónBy: Goodwill Industries of Southwest Florida Pathways to Opportunity (PTO) is a life skills development program for individuals with Intellectual and Development Disabilities (IDD), one of the programs offered by Goodwill Industries of Southwest Florida (SWF). The 5 day I GOT THIS Golf Camp is the Foundation's flagship golf instruction program and is the perfect opportunity for Athletes 13+ with intellectual disabilities to learn fun and useful golf skills, led by professional golf instructors. "Last year, several of our PTO participants attended the I GOT THIS Golf Camp and it sparked an unexpected passion for golf," explains Jessica Tursi, Goodwill SWFL's Director of Disability Services. "This new inspiration provided the impetus for a new PTO golf club the Pathways Birdies." The I GOT THIS Golf Camp allows the PTO participants who went previously to become leaders and help teach the golf skills they learned to other participants. It will also provide opportunity for staff to bring the PTO participants out into the community while sharing in the fun of golfing. Media is invited to the Golf Skills Showcase at 11:30 a.m. on Friday, May 23, 2025. Goodwill Industries of Southwest Florida is committed to serving people with disabilities and disadvantages by offering life-changing opportunities to achieve independence.
