BURROUGHS & CHAPIN GOLF MANAGEMENT RAISES $27,890 TO BENEFIT PATRIOT GOLF DAY
Nine B & C Golf Courses Hosted Fund Raisers for Military Families, September 4-7
September 25, 2009, Myrtle Beach, S.C. – Burroughs & Chapin Golf Management announced today that $27,890 was raised during the third annual Patriot Golf Day event, which was held September 4 - 7 at Burroughs & Chapin golf courses. All proceeds will go to Folds of Honor Foundation, an organization that provides scholarship opportunities to the families of soldiers who have been injured or killed in the line of duty. Since the inception of the Patriot Golf Day event in 2007, Burroughs & Chapin Golf Management has raised $56,400 for the cause.
Nine Burroughs & Chapin Golf Management courses participated (Myrtlewood Golf Club, Pine Lakes Country Club, The Resort at Grande Dunes, The Members Club at Grande Dunes, Tidewater Golf Club & Plantation, Farmstead Golf Links, Meadowlands Golf Club, River Hills Golf & Country Club and Arcadian Shores Golf Club) and used many methods to help raise funds including donating $5 from every paid greens fee; rewarding each donation of $20 or more with a complimentary round; securing contributions from men and women’s member associations; hosting raffles at the course; and encouraging golfers to pay with American Express cards in order to earn American Express’s matching contributions.
Many golfers can say that they’ve played 36 holes in a day but to help raise money for Patriot Golf Day, seven B & C Golf Management golf professionals banded together to play as many holes as possible at The Members Club on Saturday, September 5. The professionals accepted pledges from the community and each played 100 holes from 6:00 a.m. until sundown.
"I am very proud of what our B & C Golf Management PGA professionals, our golfers and the Myrtle Beach community accomplished to honor the brave men and women who are serving our county in the United States military," said Mike Buccerone senior director for Grande Dunes and Pine Lakes Clubs and Amenities. “We’ve participated in the previous two Patriot Golf Day events but worked hard to make the 2009 Patriot Golf Day a bigger success.”
