"Gleneagles’ “Go Fund Me” Campaign Needs You!"
/The wokesters and non-top 100 collectors would be descending on San Francisco’s Gleneagles next month when the PGA Championship hits San Francisco. But with that event postponed and rescheduled for August, the “speakeasy of golf courses” needs help, as does another San Francisco brand, State Apparel.
The Save Sharp Park crowd has posted this unbylined story on the efforts to help Gleneagles and show support for the area’s golf brand.
This Spring, the 1-2 punch of the COVID-19 pandemic combined with high City water bills and maintenance costs that did not go away when the City ordered golfers to keep away, has the City’s lessee Tom Hsieh with his back against the wall. So he is conducting a fundraising campaign on “Go Fund Me”, where Tom explains his plight in a heartfealt letter – which we urge you to read in full. An excerpt:
"It appears that without financial assistance, I will not be able to continue operating Gleneagles nor will I be able to maintain it, even minimally in the coming weeks or months. So if you have a soft spot for public golf like no other, and hope to one day play another round at a community based golf course, please help. I know there are many more urgent causes out there and I urge you to support them first. If you have any more capacity then please point it towards Gleneagles.”
