*Subject:**Travel print pool report #2 - Trump International Golf Club*

The presidential motorcade was rolling from Mar-a-Lago at 8:55 AM. Pool did not see POTUS enter motorcade.

Motorcade pulled into Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach at 9:09 AM.

Press vans broke off to hold at lounge at Palm Beach International Airport.

No word on the presidents activities at the golf club. Trump skipped golf the past two days in the wake of last weeks school shooting.

Pool has not laid eyes on POTUS since Friday night, when he met with injured victims and first responders from the Parkland shooting.

Press had an eventful morning before entering Mar-a-Lago:

Driver of one of the press pool vans was detained during security screening for what he said was a personal firearm found in his baggage. Driver said he forgot to leave the firearm inside his personal vehicle before entering van.

Screening took place off club grounds in parking lot across the street and roughly an hour before press vans joined up with presidential motorcade.

Driver was not allowed onto club property so a White House staffer drove the van instead. White House staff said all drivers were replaced after the incident. When press loaded back into vans, driver was being questioned by an officer.

When on club grounds, another van grazed a Secret Service vehicle in the parking lot. Damage to vehicles appeared to be very minor and no one was hurt.
