Carolinas Golf Association License Plate Program

The Carolinas Golf Foundation (CGF) was formed by the Carolinas Golf Association in 1977 to provide support for universities and technical schools involved in golf-oriented turfgrass research.

Since then, the CGF has expanded to assist other programs such as the First Tee, USGA/LGPA Junior Girls and other junior programs, women's golf, Rounds4Research and many other worthwhile Carolinas projects. The CGF is supported through individual contributions like yours and through the CGA.

Scholarships
The CGF scholarship program supports students who are aspiring to become golf superintendents and turfgrass managers in the Carolinas. In 2011, the Carolinas Golf Foundation underwrote grants to turfgrass majors at Clemson University, North Carolina State University, and 6 Carolinas-based community colleges totaling $26,000!

Turfgrass Research Projects
The Carolinas Golf Foundation also concentrates research grant aid at various colleges which is used for new grasses and treatments to be used in the grass transition zone, which covers the Carolinas.

Player Development
The Foundation supports many aspects of women's golf and junior golf throughout the Carolinas. Donations are made to the Women's Carolinas Golf Association, North Carolina Women's Golf Association, South Carolina Junior Golf Foundation, and many other worthy volunteer groups.

How You Can Help
All contributions to the Carolinas Golf Foundation are tax deductible and go directly to various Carolinas programs. The CGA will match your gift and also absorb 100% of the administrative fees.

CGA License Plate Program FAQ

1. If I order just the CGA plate, what will it look like?

The Special plate will resemble the plate icon at the top of this column. The four main characters on the plate will be numbers and your total plate number will be:
# # # # CG.

2. How do I personalize my CGA plate?

On the order form there is a check box you may select to order a personalized plate. You may select 4 characters for a personalized message (you may use a combination of letters and numbers but you cannot specify numbers only when ordering a personalized plate). The total price for a personalized CGA plate is $60.00. Make your check out to the Carolinas Golf Association or CGA.

3. When will I receive my new license plate?

The State of North Carolina has already approved our license plate design. However, we need to have a minimum of 300 special plate orders for the DMV to begin distribution. Once we have 300 orders we will submit all of the orders to the DMV and they will mail your new plates to you directly. We hope to reach our goal of 300 plates within six months, if not sooner.

Update: Plate orders as of 8/1/13 = 254 applications

4. What happens after you get to 300 orders?

At that time all applicants will be able to order the CGA License Plate directly from the North Carolina Division of Motor Vehicles.

5. Why are you asking for my vehicle and insurance information on the order form?

All of this information is required by the NC DMV in order to process the application for a Special or Personalized license plate. Your signed form will be forwarded to the DMV together with all orders once we have reached the minimum 300 order level.

6. What do I do when it comes time to renew my plate?

You will renew your license plate in the normal manner. If you choose to keep your special or personalized plate the DMV will charge you $30 (or $60) in addition to the regular license plate renewal fee (+/- $28.00) for each year you continue with the special plate program.

7. How do I order a CGA License Plate?

Just download the application form from our website, fill out all of the requested information, sign the application, and return it to the Carolinas Golf Association with your check or credit card information. Your plate will be mailed to you from the DMV shortly after we have reached the 300 order minimum. Make your check out to the Carolinas Golf Association or CGA.

8. Can I order a plate if I live outside North Carolina?

You may order a plate if you have a vehicle registered in the state of North Carolina. Your residency does not matter.
