Whether a member of the BCWGA, WGA-18, Learning Lady, 4-G, Lady Player, or a non-affiliated golfer, ALL women golfers in Big Canoe and their guests, who have a handicap, are invited to participate in a Charity Tournament sponsored by the BCWGA on Oct. 3, 2022.
The Charity Tournament, which will have a 3 p.m. Shotgun start is a flighted 4-women 9-hole scramble, which will benefit “The Weekend Snack Program of Pickens County.”
Over 50% of the total student population in Pickens County qualifies for free breakfast and lunch at school during the week. “The Weekend Snack Program” provides meal bags to the schools for the students to take home on Fridays. Volunteers shop, purchase, sort, pack and deliver meal bags to Pickens County schools each week during the school year. Each bag contains ten to twelve items intended to provide healthy food for the weekend. At the end of the 2021-2022 school year, volunteers were packing more than 600 bags each week. All funds received by the organization are used to purchase food items. This program is a 100% self–supporting volunteer program. We believe the “The Weekend Snack Program of Pickens County” is a charity eminently deserving of our support.
The registration fee to play in the tournament is $50, plus applicable cart and greens fees. The registration fee includes prizes and cart tips. Cocktails and hors d’oeuvres will be served at the end of play.
To participate in this afternoon of golf, and support Pickens County students, you may register your team now by emailing Kay Herndon at kaymherndon@gmail.com. Registration closes Sunday, Sept. 25. It’s time to get your teams together! If you would like to play but do not have a foursome, please let Kay know. We will compile a list of available players and form teams as the numbers allow.
Donations from those who cannot play but wish to support this worthy organization will be gratefully accepted at the Pro Shop desk.
