Record Breaking Year for The Jake Golf Tournament

What an incredible year of The Jake! On behalf of Scott and Amy Vinson, The Kyle Pease Foundation, and The Jake 2022 golf committee, we cannot thank all of our sponsors and participants enough for their support and generosity to further fuel The Jake Vinson Family Grant and the Foundation.

Thanks to our 124 golfers, sponsors, volunteers, fantastic weather (Thanks, Jake!), the gorgeous course and community at Horseshoe Bend Country Club, we raised over $100,000, another record-breaking year! This success leads to changing the lives of people with disabilities through sports and leaving a real impact, long after you have walked off the golf course, and for that, we cannot thank you enough.

From the smiles, endless laughter, and fantastic golf shots (maybe some not-so-great ones) we hope everyone enjoyed their afternoon with us, and we look forward to seeing everyone back at The Jake in 2023.

Please keep an eye out for your email later this year, as we will proudly announce the recipient of The Jake Vinson Family Grant in December. Also, stay up-to-date with The Kyle Pease Foundation as we roll out some exciting announcements in the New Year!

Pushing Beyond Limits, Together!

Parker Miles, KPF's Summer 2022 Intern

Parker Miles joined The Kyle Pease Foundation as a Summer Intern starting in June. He is a rising Senior at Holy Innocents Episcopal School in Atlanta, GA. At school, Parker is involved on with track and the golf team.

How did You Get Involved with KPF:
In early 8th grade, I participated in a 5K race where upon winning, I met Brent and Kyle and learned all about the Foundation. They told me there were many wheelchair athletes my age who wanted to compete and win just as much as I did and I immediately jumped on board.

I raced several races in 8th grade with the Foundation and started a club at my school in 9th grade called “Wheeling with the Bears” which was designed to raise awareness about The Kyle Pease foundation in my school community. Additionally, it gives many people in my school opportunities to race and connects with many athletes from KPF.
