On Monday, Aug. 17th, Chicago Bears legend and 2013 Walter Payton Man of the Year Charles “Peanut” Tillman teed off alongside more than 60 youth from Big Brothers Big Sisters of Metro Chicago at Harborside International Golf Center in Chicago for the Bank of America Golf with Us Clinic. Tillman and local golf teaching professionals taught youth golf lessons like swinging, putting, and chipping, inspiring the next generation to learn both golf skills and life skills. “I’m excited to partner with Bank of America to help make golf more accessible for young people in Chicago and across the country. Golf with Us clinics are so important because they help kids learn life skills like focus, discipline and perseverance. Those lessons help young people thrive not only on the course, but also in their daily lives,” said Tillman. Golf with Us invites kids ages 6-18 to access tee times for $5 or less at thousands of courses through Youth on Course. To date, nearly 7,400 kids across Chicago and more than 187,000 across the country have signed up. For more information, visit www.youthoncourse.org/bofa-golf-with-us
