On September 13, 2020 the 12th Annual Prostate Cancer Awareness Golf Scramble will tee off with a shotgun start at 8 AM at Clinton Heights Golf Course. Registration begins at 730 AM but preregistrations are welcome and recommended since this event fills up every year.
Some history … In 2005 there was an awareness of an acute need for more readily available information regarding prostate cancer. The decision was made to establish The Prostate Cancer Awareness Fund within the Tiffin Community Foundation and to raise money for that purpose. In 2009 the fund advisors began raising money in earnest to promote awareness of this disease that effects one in six men and their families.
Since then over $80,000 has been for the cause and $35,000 has been donated to the Mercy Health Foundation to support their efforts to educate the community about prostate cancer. The intent is to grant another $7,500 this year to the Mercy Health Foundation. Please contact Bernie Steinmetz, Annal Programs, Events and Sponsorship Officer at the Mercy Health Foundation (419-455-7049) (Bernie_Steinmetz@mercy.com) to plan an awareness event at your workplace!
The cost to golf is $200 per team and includes 18 holes with a cart, hot dogs at the turn with lunch to follow. Text Steve at 419-618-3277 to secure your spot!
If you or your company would like to donate items to be part of our raffle, please contact Laura at 419-689-1665.
The cost to sponsor a hole is $25 (minimum) and your generous donations are gratefully accepted. Please send to: PCA – Tiffin Community Foundation, ATTN: Mike Reser, 1705 Lakeview Drive, Tiffin, OH 44883. Or you may send via VENMO: @SUE-RESER.
Come prepared to participate in a 50/50 drawing as well as various raffles.
The Prostate Cancer Awareness Fund advisors are sincerely grateful for your generosity through the years and remain passionate about educating local communities about prostate cancer and men’s health in general. The Fund looks forward to more opportunities to continue this effort thanks to and because of all who have participated and/or have donated in the past and who currently continue to do so.
