Nevada Regional Medical Center (NRMC) Foundation is set to host the 23rd annual Caring with Pride Golf Classic on Friday, May 8th at the Frank E. Peters Municipal Golf Course. Proceeds from this annual tournament help fund needed patient care equipment or services throughout the hospital.
“We’re truly grateful to continue hosting this popular fundraiser in support for our hospital,” said Foundation Director Jennifer Eaton. “The many individuals who return year after year – some for all 23 years – are a testament not only to the quality of this event, but also to their shared commitment to the continual improvements for the health of our community.”
The tournament is open to the first 40 teams who register and will be scored with a first, second and third place team in three flights. This year, as in recent years, prizes awarded will be in cash, totaling more than $4,000.
“The tournament will begin with a 9 a.m. shotgun start,” Eaton said. “This format gives participants time to gather beforehand, enjoy a grab and go breakfast, connect with one another, and learn more about the day’s games and prizes.”
A 50/50 cash drawing will once again highlight the event, alongside a variety of popular on-course contests. Golfers will have multiple chances to win in side-event challenges, including the coveted hole-in-one competitions on the par-3 holes. This year’s grand prize raises the stakes even higher, offering a $10,000 hole-in-one opportunity.
There are many opportunities for sponsorships of the Golf Classic. The deadline to register to play in the tournament is Friday, May 1st. For more information or to register, call the NRMC Foundation office at (417) 448-3710 or visit www.nrmchealth.com/golf.
