Kathye McCall After working in the profession of Parks and Recreation for 32 years, she retired from the City of North Richland Hills in 2013. I thank my mom (non-golfer) for introducing me to golf through the Fort Worth Recreation Department when I was 11 years old. “Golf in itself isn’t easy, but it only takes making a par or birdie every once in a while, to keep you coming back. For me personally, it takes one good shot that stays in the fairways.” |
