Wounded Heroes Golf Classic and Charity Par 3

by Brent Carlson PGA Head Golf Professional

Iam often asked what makes Hampton Hall unique. The golf amenities here are outstanding, but I am quick to point out the people are what make this club special. I was reminded of this after visiting Wexford, one of the host sites for the 2023 Wounded Heroes event. Their membership’s interest has been sparked by something that began at Hampton Hall many years ago. The Wounded Heroes event truly benefits a great cause.

For me there is much satisfaction in watching our members “give” of themselves to benefit others. I believe that quality makes a place “special.” Think about it – how often do we give without expecting something in return?

I know I could do better in this regard and the Wounded Heroes event inspires me in that spirit.

We also saw it earlier this year with the Charity Par 3. The good people of Hampton Hall coming together to give of themselves to benefit others – most of whom we will never meet.

I am not sure which of the adjectives is the best – unselfish, humble, selfless, generous. Go ahead and pick one. I hope you are as inspired as I am by them, and that we will continue to support these worthy causes while seeking out new opportunities to be a part of.
