Girls Inc. of Oak Ridge is hosting its 17th Annual Golf Classic on Friday, May 30, at the Oak Ridge Country Club.
The Golf Classic this year will feature a Hole-In-One Car Prize sponsored by Sexton Automotive, first- and second-place team prizes, division prizes, prizes for closest to the pin, longest drive, and a putting contest, a press release said.
“Our fun day on the course will include refreshments and snacks as well as a fabulous dinner from the Oak Ridge Country Club,” the release said.
This year, the funds received from the Golf Classic sponsors and team fees will all support the new Girls Inc. Golf Program, the release said. Girls Inc. will be starting their first-ever golf season for girls ages 5-15 years old who are interested in building skills, learning to play, and increasing their interest in golf.
“Girls Inc. recognizes that over 40 percent of collegiate female golf scholarships go unused, and they see an opportunity to get girls invested in this fantastic sport at young age,” the release said. “Help us continue to grow girls in golf this year by coming out and being a part of our Golf Classic.”
To become a sponsor or submit a team, contact Girls Inc. of Oak Ridge at (865) 482-4475.
