Event Details

What would you do if you were told you could not follow your dream just because of the color of your skin? Local author Nancy Churnin presents the inspirational story of professional golfer Charlie Sifford, the first African-American player on the PGA tour. With determination, skill, and a little help from Jackie Robinson, Charlie does not give up and follows his dreams to become the first African-American player to win a PGA golf tournament.

Go Charlie!
