Events & Giving
For the AT&T Pro-Am in 2020, Chevron is offering Monterey county students a new field trip experience.

Approximately 600 students from Monterey County will have the opportunity to receive professional golf coaching, hands-on learning in the newly revamped Chevron STEM Zone, and other lessons on nutrition, physical fitness, and sportsmanship from notable community partners. In addition, Chevron will be bringing a mobile STEM Zone tour to two school locations during the week of the AT&T Pro-Am. Participation in these events is by invitation only.
