The South Johnson City golf course near the Carter County line is having a Junior Golf Club giveaway this coming Saturday from 10 a.m. till noon for kids the ages of 6-16.

Most of the clubs will probably be used, but in good shape. The function is basically to get kids involved in playing golf at a younger age.

“We are giving away clubs for free to anyone interested and give kids access to this sport,” Jennings said. “This is a good opportunity for kids to get the equipment they need.”
