 100 Hole Golf Marathon
Join a group of 36 golfers for a full day of golf at Eagle Creek Golf Club.
The whole course is ours & our goal is to raise $50,000!
How does a 100 Hole Golf Marathon work? It's simple.
Starting first thing in the morning there is a kick off breakfast. You will have the use of a golf cart, and head right onto the course for as much golf as you can handle! Beverages are available throughout the day, lunch is served on the course and it all ends with dinner and prizes to be awarded.
Entry Fee is $100.00 with a goal of raising $1500.00 in pledges per golfer. This is a chance for any of your friends, family or work associates to help you to reach your goal while contributing to our next house build. Any donations over $25.00 will be given a tax receipt (excluding entry fee).
Get a group of friends together and make this a day you won't forget! Don't be disappointed, register today and be the first on the links. Registration and pledge sheets are available by calling Angela at the Habitat for Humanity office 749-9950 ext. 223 or by visiting http://www.habitatncr.com/en/news_events/golf.php
