FOR THE SERIOUS GOLFER...Click Here!...LOOKING TO IMPROVE HIS GAME, LIFE AND FITNESS

Thursday at the John Deere Classic I bumped into an old friend, D.J. Gregory. Remember the guy with Cerebral Palsy who walked every hole of the 2008 PGA Tour? He was featured in every local newspaper on tour, ESPN, and too many local stations too mention. He never missed a hole and is still walking PGA courses in 2010. Now he has a Walking for Kids Foundation and he’s raising money for disabled kids through his weekly treks.

Every week any number of golfers sign up and donate any amount of money per birdie made. D.J. follows each one, cheers them on and collects his money for the kids. Check out his www.Walkingforkids.com, make a donation and cheer him on. Follow his journey through his blog and pictures. All is for a good cause and a very good person.

When D.J. is standing by the ropes the players come to him. They want to know how he’s doing or how they can help. They have to take a number for dinner reservations with him. He’s an inspiration to everyone out here, a lovely story, and a fantastic cause for a contribution. Let him know you’re behind him.
