100-Hole Golf Marathon, the First Ever in Riverside, Will Benefit Mary S. Roberts Pet Adoption Center
Golfers and non-golfers can help homeless cats and dogs during this extraordinary golf tournament at the prestigious Victoria Club Golf Course in Riverside, CA. Prize opportunities, vacation raffle, 3 meals, and a full day of fun are promised to golfers who raise $2500 in pledges from supporters to participate.
Riverside, CA, May 09, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Runners have their marathons. Now, golfers can have their marathon, too. The Mary S. Roberts Pet Adoption Center (MSRPAC) on June 14 is hosting a 100-hole golf marathon, the first event of its kind in Riverside. The marathon will be at the prestigious, private Victoria Club and will help support the animals awaiting adoption at the Pet Adoption Center (formerly Riverside Humane Society).
This is no ordinary golf tournament. It’s a fast-paced, 100 holes of golf played as a personal best-ball scramble. That’s 50 holes, 2 balls per hole…100 holes. And a lot of “Fore” reverberating across the course.
“If you love dogs and cats and love to golf, this is the perfect event for you - this event was made for you,” says Zee Beard, chairwoman of the marathon. “Non-golfers can help the animals, as well, by sponsoring golfers.”
The day starts with breakfast at 7:30 and concludes at 5:00 with a well-deserved buffet dinner, prizes and more. In between is the marathon on the gorgeous Victoria Club Golf Course with golf carts, balls, lunch, snacks and beverages provided. There will be hole-in-one cash prizes, a golf vacation raffle, and other fabulous prizes.
MSRPAC will help golfers build a team of sponsors and secure pledges, which are tax-deductible. To participate in the marathon, golfers commit to paying a minimum of $1 per hole and raising pledge money from friends, family, coworkers and others for a total of $2,500 per golfer.
To register as a golfer or to sponsor a golfer, visit www.petsadoption.org or call Gail Ousley, director of development, at 951-688-4340 x305.
The Mary S. Roberts Pet Adoption Center, located at 6165 Industrial Ave., Riverside, is a non-profit, public benefit charitable organization serving communities in Riverside County and beyond. As the largest no-kill pet adoption organization in Riverside County, the center accepts owner turn-ins of cats and dogs and transfers from local animal-control agencies. Prior to adoption, each animal is spayed or neutered, vaccinated, evaluated for behavior issues, and microchipped. Each animal also is monitored for physical, emotional and mental health, and receives ongoing socialization.
