PARIS – The Western Maine Veterans’ Advisory Committee has announced that a number of local sponsors are providing huge prizes for its fourth annual golf tournament on Saturday, Aug. 23, at Fairlawn Golf Course in Poland to benefit the residents at Maine Veterans’ Home in South Paris.
WMVAC is still accepting players but please hurry as last year’s tournament was such a success that this year’s tournament is filling up fast. The players enjoyed a buffet-style meal and vast opportunities to walk away with prizes.
Tournament registration for each player is $75, all going to a great cause. The scramble format tournament will begin at 9 a.m. with a shotgun start. The tournament fee includes 18 holes of competition, use of a cart, one free mulligan, a catered meal and a number of products from local sponsors. Trophies will be awarded to winners in various categories.
All golfers will be entered into a drawing for one try at a $1,000,000 hole-in-one shot.
There is also a hole-in-one prize of a new car sponsored by Goodwin’s Chevrolet.
“We are so thankful to WMVAC and the sponsors to pull together a number of great prizes and opportunities,” said Joel Dutton, MVH-South Paris administrator. “It just goes to show you how important our veterans are, and we thank all of the sponsors and players for taking part.”
