PENDLETON, Ore.-Wildhorse Resort and Casino will host two free youth golf clinics as part of the Epson Tour’s 2026 Wildhorse Ladies Golf Classic in August.
“Every year, we look forward to the inspiration and joy these clinics bring to local families,” said Gary E. George, CEO of Wildhorse Resort & Casino. “These opportunities allow tribal and local youth to connect with professional golfers, learn new skills, and develop a lifelong interest in the game.”
The morning and afternoon clinics on August 18 will both cover swinging, chipping, and putting, as well as golf etiquette, and will include instruction from Epson Tour professionals.
According to Wildhorse Resort and Casino, the free clinics are an opportunity for local youth to learn golf fundamentals and receive personalized instruction.
Sponsored by Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., the two free clinics on August 18 are part of a week’s worth of activities leading up to the Wildhorse Ladies Golf Classic August 21-23.
“We’re proud to continue our support of the youth golf clinics during the Wildhorse Ladies Golf Classic,” said Sean Kimball, Executive Director and Relationship Manager with Wells Fargo’s Gaming Division.
