Bright’s Creek Golf and Sporting Club Hosts 1st Annual Patriot Golf Day Charity Tournament
$50,000 Goal will benefit the Folds of Honor Foundation
MILL SPRING, NC (August 2015) – Bright’s Creek will be hosting the 1st Annual Patriot Golf Day Charity Tournament In conjunction with the 2ndannual 24hour GolfAthon by Brian Stewart, PGA Professional and Director of Golf Operations at Bright’s Creek benefiting the Folds of Honor Foundation starting on Monday, Sept. 7 at 9:30 AM.
Stewart played 325 holes last year trumping his initial goal of 270. This year, Stewart is hopeful that he can exceed his previous holes and aims to play at least 326 holes.
“It’s going to be close, you have to keep playing consistently fast,” Stewart said. “I only took a one hour break last year and that was to eat breakfast, take a shower and change clothes.”
After accomplishing last year’s feat, Bright’s Creek was able to donate $7,500 to the Folds of Honor foundation, a success which has prompted Stewart to raise the bar.
Bright’s Creek has expanded their efforts from the 24 hour GolfAthon to the Inaugural 1st Annual Patriot Golf Day Charity Event. Our goal for the new golf tournament is to have 15 corporate sponsors and 100 golfers raise $50,000 for the Folds of Honor Foundation. There will be multiple prizes and awards for the players in addition to a complimentary Pig Pickin lunch.
Corporation who choose Platinum and Gold sponsorships for the Bright’s Creek Hosts 1st Annual Patriot Golf Day Charity Event are guaranteed that 100% of their donation will go to Folds of Honor plus they will receive complimentary Corporate memberships at Bright’s Creek and complimentary foursome for the tournament.
All golfers are welcome to the tournament, the cost of play is $400.00 for a foursome and 80% of the proceeds, tax deductible, will go to Folds of Honor.
