Get ready to tee off for Pine Tree Hospice

Area golfers will have the chance to enjoy two days of golf in support of a great cause at the 2015 Pine Tree Hospice Golf Open. The two-day tournament is slated to take place on Saturday, June 27 at Dexter Municipal Golf Course (924-6477) and Sunday, June 28 at the Foxcroft Golf Club (564-8887) with a shotgun start at 8 a.m.. and a 1 p.m. flight available both days. Players are encouraged to play both days but are definitely welcome if they are only able to put to use their golfing skills on one of the days.

Teams of four will compete for some great prizes each day of the tournament and for overall winners. Individuals who do not have a foursome but wish to participate are still encouraged to sign up, and we will do our best to put together a team.

Prizes will include 18 holes with a cart at Mingo Springs, 18 holes with a cart and boat shuttle at Mt. Kineo, and 18 holes with a cart at Sunday River Golf Club. A delicious lunch and refreshments will be provided for all participants.

The Golf Open has become a popular yearly fundraiser for Pine Tree Hospice’s services to individuals and families in our area with life-limiting illness. As a volunteer hospice, PTH relies on generous community contributions and grants. Cost for this year’s tournament is per person per course or  for the entire tournament (lunches included). Call courses to register and reserve carts. For more information, call 564-4346 or email wecare@pinetreehospice.org.
