The weather at the Greenbrier Classic has been certainly nice for the First Tee of Southern West Virginia to raise money for their cause.

They're hosting a putting competition in conjunction with the Greenbrier Classic. For just $5, amateurs get the chance to putt two out of four balls in the cup, and the winners will walk away with a new set of Odyssey and Calloway golf clubs.

"It's a huge fundraiser for us, and this tournament is a big way for us to exhibit the First Tee," said Richard Kissinger.  We're able to talk to the parents about the nine core values and what we do at the First Tee."

The values Kissinger mentioned are Honesty, Integrity, Sportsmanship, Respect, Confidence, Responsibility, Perseverance, Courtesy and Judgement.  Kissinger adds that you do not have to be present to win the drawing.  The First Tee putting green is located on the 12th fairway, and is opened until Sunday afternoon.
