An organization dedicated to teaching students the ABCs of business and economics, Junior Achievement’s devoted staff and trained volunteers reach out to Lincoln’s youth with the aid of revenue generated from a yearlong discount golf card. By clutching the putting voucher, golfers take advantage of half-off greens fees at 20 area golf courses, including Yankee Hill, West Nine at Firethorn, and HiMark. Most facilities acknowledge the cards for unlimited rounds Monday–Friday, but a few limit play to one round on specific days or allow infinite rounds if using a time machine. Select clubs such as Hidden Valley, Hilltop Country Club, and College Heights Country Club apply card discounts to cart fees as well. Ball busters can stock up on equipment with a 10% discount on all in-stock merchandise at Austad’s Golf or enjoy tasty fare while discussing the eternal panache of plaid with discounts at area restaurants.

Proceeds from card sales benefit Junior Achievement’s programs designed to impart basic business savvy such as how to balance a checkbook, how to manage a credit card, and more. During its 40-year history, more than 161,000 young people have worked with more than 600 volunteers.
