Are you feeling lucky? Do you have mad striking skills on the golf course?
If you are and you do, register to play in Saturday’s fifth annual CASA Charity Golf Tournament. With one lucky swing of the club on Allen County Country Club’s No. 9 hole, you can win a brand new Ford Mustang.
The 31st Judicial District Court Appointed Advocates for Children (CASA) hosts the annual charity golf tournament to raise funds for its program.
CASA trains advocates appointed by local judges to children who have been removed from their homes because of abuse or neglect and are in the court sys-tem.
The tournament is a four-person scramble for men’s, women’s and co-ed teams. Registration fee is $50 per person which includes greens fees, golf cart, lunch and other perks.
There are sponsorship rates for a whole team.
Tee time is 9 a.m. with registration starting at 7:30 a.m. at Allen County Country Club.
A new contest for the tournament is the Hole-in-One sponsored by Twin Motors Ford of Iola. The first person to make a hole-in-one on No. 9 wins a Mustang.
“We’re still accepting sponsors and have room for a couple more golf teams if anyone wants to play,” said Aimee Daniels, CASA director.
“Even if you don’t play golf we encourage you to donate $50 as a hole sponsor to help our local children.”
Celebrity host for the event is District Court Judge Daniel Creitz. Event sponsors are Southern Star Central Gas Pipeline and Community National Bank in Iola, Chanute and Fredonia.
CASA serves children in Allen, Neosho, Woodson and Wilson counties. All proceeds from the tournament go directly to recruit, train and support more volunteer advocates for local children in foster care.
No funds will be spent on non-essentials and all funds stay in the local communities.
CASA is a non-profit corporation.
