Annual Charity Golf Tournament
 
Mark your calendars for Saturday December 18th, 2021 for the Superstition Mountain Rotary 21st Annual Charity Golf tournament. Our golf tournament is one of our major annual fundraiser events.The proceeds benefit a wide number of local area youth and non-profit causes, including AJ Boys & Girls Club, local area food banks, non-profits serving the homeless - as well as a wide range of other local area needs. Revenues from the event also helped provide more than $12,000 for scholarships ~ which helped a number of high school seniors proceed with educational goals. 

Your help is needed  -- regardless if you are a golfer/or not a golfer

---- If you are a golfer, gather your friends and sign up to play in the event

---- Regardless of whether you are a golfer or not, you can help play an important role, by purchasing sponsorships, purchasing ball drop tickets, providing raffle items -- or asking others to provide raffle items, or purchase a sponsorship

Some suggestions for raffle event items are gift certificates for restaurants, hair salons, oil changes, nail salons, massage therapy, gyms, etc ------- all the sorts of goods and services that people regularly need and enjoy. Consider helping a small business by purchasing a gift certificate from them to be donated for use as a raffle item at the Golf Tournament.

The Club is joining forces with the Salvation Army to participate in their annual 'red kettle' bell ringing community service project. Since 1891 the Salvation Army has been hanging red kettles at local businesses during the weeks before Christmas and providing opportunities for the public to make contributions, which are used to help the most vulnerable in local communities. The Club participates in this community service project every holiday season. This year, Club Service Projects Chair, Jeffrey Mitchell, helped co-ordinate with the Salvation Army for kettles to be placed at the Apache Junction Ace Hardware store entrance. Be sure to drop by the store and say hello to various Rotarians who will be volunteering at the red kettle during various times between now and Christmas.
