16th Annual ―School‖stic Classic Golf Tournament
Planning for our 16th annual "School"astic Classic Golf tournament is well underway under the leadership of co-chairs, Judi Bailey (Fundraising Director) and Stephanie St. Clair (Education Director). This year’s tournament theme is "Diamonds in the Rough," a great description of all of us women who are members of Women of Sugarmill Woods, and particularly appropriate for all the golfing women who will play in our event. The event will be held at Sugarmill Woods Country Club on Monday, February 27, 2012 (with the following Monday, March 5 set up as the rain date if needed).
This year we have been able to REDUCE the entry price to $55/woman. At the end of this article an entry form is attached so that you may enter as an individual entry or make your own foursome. Vicki Budd is handling the registrations if you need more information. She can be reached at 382-5216 or vbudd@tampabay.rr.com. Please note that we have been able to reduce the price to $53 if you are a member of the Sugarmill Woods LGA and $50 if you also have an annual cart lease.
As in past years we are looking for your assistance to help make this event successful. If you have a business or know of a business who would like to sponsor a hole, please let Judi or Stephanie know. The minimum contribution for this sponsorship is $500. We are also seeking patrons who would like to contribute financially to our golf tournament in any amount below the $500 sponsorship threshold. Contributors of at least $100 will receive a golfing gift certificate provided by Sugarmill Woods country club – good for a round of golf for four people…the perfect gift when company comes and wants to play golf!
We are also seeking re-gifting items that can be used in our Chinese auction or as door prizes. Any gift you might have received for Christmas that doesn’t have a spot in your home would be a good candidate for our use. Or perhaps you are doing a lot of cleaning out and have found a new-in-the-box item that you no longer wish to keep around. Again, just contact Judi or Stephanie and they will take it off your hands!
Bottled water (16.9 ounce size) and snacks (purchased in sealed bags/cartons) are always needed. These items are used on our breakfast bar as well as in the snack bags we provide for each golfer. Items like crackers, peanuts, yogurt bars, trail mix, and cookies are great snacks to eat during play. Crystal Light To Go water flavoring packs are also appreciated.
There are so many ways that your help is needed, both in donating items that help us raise money, as well as in donating items that help us to not spend money. All funds, after expenses, are used as scholarship dollars for worthy Citrus County students who apply for one of our various scholarships – academic, technical, our endowment partnership with Florida Central, and Take Stock In Children. The number and type of scholarships we award is based strictly upon the dollars raised by WSW events.
Any way in which you can help will fill a need – donating items, being a patron, participating in the event, donating your time, printing materials, decorating the country club, crafting centerpieces, etc.
All hands are welcome! Contact Judi Bailey at 464-4380 or
baileyjudi@aol.com or Stephanie St. Clair at 503-3023 or sstclai1@gmail.com to volunteer.
Entry forms, which can be found elsewhere in this newsletter should be deposited in WSW Mailbox #4 or mailed to Women of Sugarmill Woods, 100 Cypress Blvd. W, Homosassa, FL 34446. Indicate your name, club affiliation, 18-hole index, phone number and e-mail address as requested. Your registration will be confirmed via phone or e-mail. You may sign up individually in which case you will be assigned to a team based upon your handicap. Or you may sign up as a twosome, threesome, or a full foursome.
Come be a Diamond in the Rough and help send a deserving Citrus County study to college!
