THE COUPLE'S GOLF GROUP FOUNDED IN 2005

The Couples Golf Group was established in May 2005 by Bill & Brenda Fuller and with the assistance of their good friend Michael Herndon, a USGA Rules Official and a member of the Ebenezer AME Golf Ministry. Brenda, Bill, and Michael contacted a few good friends, who were also golfers, and the Couples Golf Group was formed. As the groups began taking shape, Brenda coordinated with the couples and set the schedule for each year.  The group plays once a month at various courses on weekends. The goal was to support marriages and to increase the number of golfers in the Washington area and beyond, by playing golf and socializing with other couples after the events. Since it's inception in 2005, the Couples Golf Group has hosted numerous events, built lasting friendships, encouraged strong families, and all involved have enjoyed 15 years of fellowship.

Over the last 16 years we had approximately 29 couples join our group. we have 4 original couples  who have maintained their membership. They are

Milton and Sheila Clarke

Bill and Brenda Fuller

Donnee and Vedia Gray

Michael and Valerie Herndon

Over the years we maintained a verbal understanding of our guidelines, rules, and expectations. The most significant guidelines and information were incorporated in our yearly newsletter. Now that we are expanding and have several new couples, we thought that the History, Format, and Norms of our group should be recorded for the benefit of future members. We hope that, even after we're gone, the group will continue thriving to the benefit of other couples, who share our love of Golf.
