17th Annual Philip
J. Kelly "Caring & Sharing" Charity Golf Tournament
Our annual "Caring & Sharing" Golf Tournament will
be held on Saturday, August 23, 2008, at the Granite Run Golf Club in
Granite Falls, MN. Since the tournament's inception, it has raised
nearly $180,000.00 for the "Caring & Sharing" Fund. This fund solely
benefits patients and families needing financial assistance for alcohol
and/or other drug treatment, transitional living costs and/or other
needed services.
The registration fee is just $75.00 per golfer.
This includes: 18 holes of golf, shared cart, continental breakfast,
lunch, dinner, trophies, event prizes, silent auction and door prizes.
The tournament format is a four person "best ball" scramble.
Registration is limited and early reservations are encouraged. The
registration deadline is August 1, 2008 or as soon as the tournament
sells out! Awards for the top teams in the following divisions: Men's,
Women's, Mixed Couples and Seniors.
In addition to golfing, there are many ways to get
involved, such as: purchasing an ad for the tournament program, donating
an item for the silent auction or door prize, sponsoring the event or
being a "phantom" golfer. Sponsorships are available at a variety of
levels and ads can be purchased in many different sizes.
For more information on how you can get involved,
register a team, purchase an ad, become a sponsor, become a "phantom
golfer," or volunteer the day of the event, please contact Mark Sannerud
or Marcy Heemeyer at 1-800-862-1453 or via email at
mheemeyer_projectturnabout@yahoo.com.
We hope to see you there for a day filled with
