Your Red Cross Chapter is conducting a unique Golf Tournament on Saturday, June 13, 2009 at Highland Lake Golf Course!

We are turning the entire 18 hole course into a Par 3 course with Hole-in-one opportunities at each hole.  We need volunteers to sit at each green to verify any hole-in-one that is made.

This is a great opportunity for your group or organization to assist the Red Cross in raising funds for their local Disaster Relief efforts, Health & Safety Training and Education Programs as well as the Armed Forces Emergency Services.

Volunteers would need to arrive at the golf course no later than 12:30 PM to receive hole assignments and be transported to that green.  There will be a shotgun start at 1:00 PM sharp for the golfers.  We anticipate that the last golfers would come through no later than 5:30 PM.  You would be free to go at that point or join us for the awards and dinner.

You may sign up individually or with your group organization!
