For January 2024 several of us will be participating in the “30-Day 6 Degrees of Separation Coach4aday Challenge”-today we learn about the namesake of the Walker Cup GEORGE H WALKER and Jenna Bush Hager.

Born in 1875, George H. Walker achieved notable success as a businessman and banker during his lifetime. However, his accomplishments extended beyond the realm of business, as he became the president of the USGA in 1920. His passion for golf led to the naming of the Walker Cup in his honor. Beyond his financial achievements, Walker’s significance is underscored by his role as the grandfather of President George H.W. Bush through his daughter Dorothy Walker Bush, solidifying his importance in the Bush family’s heritage.

Rules of the Challenge

Many people have heard of this concept. The notion of six degrees of separation grew out of work conducted by the social psychologist Stanley Milgram in the 1960s. It then became a 1993 film named appropriately “Six Degrees of Separation.”

Organizing a six degrees of separation challenge involves creating a chain of people, each connected to the next by a mutual acquaintance. The goal is to demonstrate that any two people in the world can be connected through a chain of six or fewer personal connections.

How to Participate

Here is how to participate:

1. Identify the First and Last Person in the Chain.
2. Go thru the connections with a brief explanation.
3. Do this daily for 30 Days posting on social media with the hashtag #Coach4adayChallenge
