School Golf Tournament Hits the Links Sunday

Ready to tee up for a cause? Golden Avenue Elementary School's is this weekend!

The third annual event is heading to the links for the Lemon Grove school's physical education program. All proceeds will go directly to the Comprehensive Wellness Program that provides rich experiences for students so they can learn how to become lifelong movers.

The tournament, held at El Cajon's Cottonwood Golf Club, will include a luncheon and silent auction. The format is a four-person scramble and costs $110 per person. Cost includes the green fee, cart rental, balls, a carne asada or chicken enchilada lunch and and raffle tickets.

The lunch and silent auction will begin at 1:30 p.m. Those attending just those two events and “fore-going” the golf tournament may do so for $25.

Golfers can try their luck (or skill) at a hole-in-one at a selected hole for a chance to win a 2012 Ford Focus from Drew Ford. The winner will get the car for a two-year lease.

Sign up for the tournament by calling Jessica Castillas at 619-825‐5600, ext. 2655. Registration begins at 8 a.m. and a shotgun start will be held at 9 a.m., with a longest drive and closest to the pin contest.

Cottonwood Golf Club is located at 3121 Willow Glen Dr. in El Cajon.
