A BENEFIT GOLF MARATHON is being planned as a fundraiser to help support the programs and ministry at Stronghold Camp and Retreat Center on June 7, 2012..
Teams of four golfers will represent a church from the Presbytery and play 100 holes of golf in one day. Continental Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner are all included in this day-long event. Each golfer is asked to donate $100 (a dollar a hole) and to raise additional pledges of at least $24 per hole from friends, family and business associates, all to benefit Stronghold. These donations ARE tax deductable.
If you are interested, sign up to be a golfer, organize a foursome and start fundraising today. If you can’t find a foursome, you can be added to another team. Otherwise, you can sponsor a registered golfer with a generous donation to Stronghold, OR challenge a golfer by giving a dollar for each hole they play!
