A $30,000 special golf cart used primarily by veterans with physical disabilities has been recovered after recently being stolen from a Stockton golf course. The security system at Swenson Golf Course captured the moment on May 16 that someone stole the Paramobile golf cart, baffling staff and leaving the course without the valuable piece of equipment.| PREVIOUS COVERAGE BELOW | “Finding it is probably a long shot, but I’d love to raise enough money to replace it,” Joe Smith, the general manager at the course, told KCRA 3 on Wednesday. “It broke my heart.”The cart allows individuals to strap into the seat, adjust the seat upwards and stand to swing, Smith explained. Unlike standard golf carts, it also allows players to drive onto the green.“It’s wonderful for people to get out and play who wouldn’t otherwise have the opportunity to,” Smith said.The cart is one of the only ones, he believes, to be in use from Fresno to Sacramento. Kevin Hoy served in the Marines. He started regularly playing golf at Swenson after going through the PGA Hope program. He enjoys the challenge, he said, as much as the camaraderie that comes with playing with other veterans.“It’s like freedom,” he said. “You get to get out there and be like everyone else.”He tries to play twice a week, but his play was limited with the cart gone.“I’m hoping they recover it,” he said on Wednesday. "I'm happy I'm able to get out there and play a game that I love."Swenson Golf Course is a PGA Hope site, a program that brings adaptive golf lessons to veterans. The cart is used as a tool for that program.After this story first aired, Smith told KCRA 3 on Thursday that a good Samaritan in Stockton found the cart. A GoFundMe that was raising money for a new cart while police investigated the theft has since been turned off. The money raised so far should cover the costs to fix the cart, which was disassembled, though the motors still work. The cart will need some replacement pieces and Smith said he's working to get an estimate sorted out. Smith encouraged any interested veterans who may be interested in joining a PGA Hope program to reach out to the course.
