| SMGA Golf Tournament to Benefit Food Bank
| | Submitted by Doug Brown and Rich Larsen | | |
The Moraga Senior Golf Association (SMGA) is hosting a major fundraising golf tournament Nov. 7 at the Moraga Country Club to raise money for the Food Bank of Contra Costa and Solano. This tournament will help provide turkeys and food to needy families during the holiday season. A private foundation has already pledged $5,000 to benefit the Food Bank of Contra Costa and Solano and to supplement the Moraga Country Club (MCC) contribution. Individuals have also offered to sponsor the event with $1,000 contributions. The format for this event will be a Shamble. Breakfast will be provided prior to an 8:30 a.m. shotgun start. At the end of the round, lunch will be provided and awards and prizes will be given.
SMGA is encouraging the support of all MCC golfing groups - Seniors, MWGA, Niners, MGA, the "Bulls" and any non-affiliated golfer - and hopes to have 100 golfers from MCC participate. There will be space for some additional golfers. The cost is $75 per person (MCC members); $125 (non-MCC members), which includes golf cart, range balls and the two meals. Cost for guests who do not wish to play golf, but would like to join the group for lunch and donate to a worthy cause, is $40 per person. All MCC members, not just golfers, are encouraged to make donations to this charitable event. For information, contact co-chairmen Doug Brown at tahoedoug@hotmail.com or Rich Larsen at rlarzoni@hotmail.com.
