"From The First Tee To The First Family"

Almost straight from The Onion.

PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. -- Thanks to rare access to one of America's most prominent families, From The First Tee to the First Family presented by The Dow Chemical Company, a half-hour NBC Sports special airing at 1 p.m. ET on Sunday, Feb. 27, takes a closer look at the Bush family's connection to The First Tee.

Wait, the first family is sponsored by the Dow Chemical Company?

Former President George H.W. Bush has served as honorary chair of The First Tee since its inception. On February 18, it was announced that George W. Bush, 43rd President of the United States, will succeed his father and become the new honorary chair. President George H. W. will become honorary chair emeritus.

Since 1997, The First Tee has impacted more than 4.7 million young people at 750 golf courses, in 4,000 elementary schools and on 120 military installations. As The First Tee moves forward, continuing to use the game of golf as the platform, the goal is to see that as many youth as possible are exposed to character education and life skills lessons, giving them the opportunity to grow individually and to become productive members of their communities.

Who aren't playing golf.
