Players Wanted: Annual Golf Tourney Benefits Pediatric Heart Patients

SARATOGA SPRINGS — Rotary Clubs throughout the Capital Region are sponsoring the 23rd annual Gift of Life International Golf Tournament on Monday, Sept. 20 at Pinehaven Country Club in Guilderland.

The fee is $130 for individuals or $500 for a foursome. The tournament will follow a handicap scramble format with a 10 a.m. shotgun start. Players may pick up a box lunch on the patio. Happy Hour begins when each player finishes golfing. Prizes will be awarded for low and net scores, putting, longest ball, and closest to the pin. Awards and raffle winners will be named after Happy Hour. 

The golf tournament raises money for pediatric heart patients. People and companies can help raise money for this cause by being a lunch sponsor, golf cart sponsor, purchasing a tee sign, and/or by golfing. You may sign up as a single or a foursome. To register to play, or support the event through sponsorships or program advertising, go to events at www.giftoflife7190.org. 

Rotary District 7190 includes 41 local clubs and stretches from Albany to Warren Counties to the north, and east to west from Rensselaer to Montgomery and Fulton Counties.
