Fore!

Posted by Diana Maria |



Picture a beautiful spring day...gentle breeze, blue skies...and teeing off on the golf-course with your friends, parents, Bob (see above), and whomever else enjoys a good game of golf.

Where can I experience such a fun day, you may be wondering!

At the UGA Wesley Golf Classic is where!

Come join us at the annual Wesley Golf Classic on April 26 at the Georgia Club. To register contact Caren Dilts at carenlynn@gmail.com

Wait a second, others of you may be wondering. I hate golf. But I DO know of individuals who love to golf, and businesses that may be interested in sponsoring a hole or donating a prize!

Then PLEASE send that info Caren's way as soon as you can!

...And if you love golf and know of potential sponsors/donors as well, send that Caren's way too!

Here is the link: Learn more about Teach For America!
