StorySpringhaven Club golfers tee it up for veterans at fourth annual event
Wallingford gathered at The Springhaven Club on July 20 for the fourth annual Tee It Up for the Troops, a day that paired local golfers with U.S. military veterans in sponsored foursomes, launched with a noon shotgun and marked by on‑course ceremonies to honor service. Proceeds supported veterans’ programs. [1][2]The club’s classic parkland layout—tight, tree‑lined corridors, bunkering and subtle greens—provided the stage, emphasizing accuracy over power and making for a meaningful community round. [3][4]Founded in 1896 and playing at its current site since 1904, Springhaven remains a fixture in the Philadelphia golf scene and a home for member‑driven traditions such as this veterans fundraiser.
