Lonnie Poole Golf Course

DONATE TO THE LONNIE POOLE GOLF COURSE

Pride. Prestige. Palmer. The Pack. Moving together with one common goal – to give North Carolina State University the distinction it deserves. A prestigious golf course, research and training facility, and clubhouse that will not only entertain, but educate; built not just for the love of the game, but to also give greater opportunities for success in the game of life.

Lonnie and Carol Lynn Poole believed in this opportunity for success and generously gave the lead gift to name NC State’s course, the Lonnie Poole Golf Course.  Mr. Poole graduated from NC State in 1959 with a Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering and  founded Waste Industries USA, Inc. in 1970. He has been active on several boards and foundations at NC State and has contributed generously to many entities at NC State. 

To move to the next level, NC State University is seeking private, philanthropic support to continue to construct and maintain the golf course and build a clubhouse and research and training center.   While many of the opportunities (which include the driving range, the practice putting green, and all of the holes) have been named, Additional Opportunities remain available for naming on the course, clubhouse and research and training center. 

Become a Charter Partner to learn about the advantages of giving your financial support. Review the Naming Opportunities available on the Course, Clubhouse, and Research and Training center. Complete and submit the Pledge Form today or mail to NCSU University Development, Campus Box 7501, Raleigh, NC 27695-7501.
