Gwinnett County Schools To Host Fundraising Golf Tournament

GWINNETT COUNTY, GA — Warmer weather is just around the corner, meaning it's nearly time to tee off to help area students. Luckily, for golfers who got a little rusty over the winter, there is still time to practice.

Gwinnett County Public School's Community-Based Mentoring Program’s 11th Annual Golf will be held on March 22 at Bear's Best Atlanta Golf Course in Suwanee.

Those hoping to participate will have until March 5 to register for the tournament. Registration costs $125 per person or $500 per foursome, and proceeds will go toward college scholarships, school enrichment activities, resources and background-building experiences for students in the community-based mentoring program, the Gwinnett County Public School Foundation said.

Registration for the tournament comes with breakfast, an awards luncheon and entry to the hole-in-one and longest drive contests.

Particpants are encouraged to dress appropriately for the weather as the event will be held rain or shine, barring dangerous conditions. The tournament's dress code requires collard shirts and prohibits denim clothing and metal spike shoes on the course.

Tickets and sponsorships can be purchased on the Gwinnett County Public School Foundation's website.
