Welcome

Formed in 2018, First Tee – Indiana in Greater Terre Haute is one of the newest Indiana program locations. The generosity of donors, community foundations and the City of Terre Haute led to the introduction of the First Tee School Program in all 18 of Vigo County’s elementary schools along with St. Patrick’s school and the 5 middle schools. In addition to the school and community center programs, First Tee junior golf sessions at area golf courses take place throughout the summer. Please see the schedule of class below for the 2024 golf season.
