JEFFERSON, April 13—On Friday, April 23, local supporters will compete in the 27th Annual Northeast Georgia Council Golf Tournament at Chateau Elan Golf Resort to help raise money for over 24,000 Scouts in this area.
“This event helps the Northeast Georgia Council deliver Scouting programs to our communities. With 2010 being our Centennial Celebration year, we are hoping to expand our outreach efforts through events like this,” said Trip Selman, Scout Executive.
The four person Lauderdale-style golf tournament will feature prizes for the top three teams, as well as prizes for “Closest to the Pin” and “Longest Drive.”
Entry for the tournament is $200 for an individual or $600 for a four-person team. The registration cost will cover brunch and beverages; a golf bag for each player; a set of range balls; and entry into the 19th Hole Party and Silent Auction.
Registration will begin at 10:30 a.m. with the tournament beginning at noon.
