| Abstract/Contents: | Describes the efforts of St. George's Golf and Country Club to garner environmental attention from the city of Toronto and the local community at the 2010 Canadian Open. Details the club's fulfillment of the Community Outreach requirement toward achieving Audubon Certification, stating that "it was the City of Toronto and its relationship with the Eco School program at the Toronto District School Board that forged a new relationship between St. George's and three area public schools." Highlights potential benefits of reaching out to the community, noting that it "creates a new community partnership that did not exist before...[and] it allows many children an opportunity to experience new things." Mentions the impact media interest in the Canadian Open had in the club's attainment of Audubon Certification. Concludes that "the lesson learned from these new initiatives is that many organizations, some with opposing viewpoints, can come together to achieve a mutually beneficial goal." |
