Get out your golf clubs and help the GCN to make the Germiston\/Bedfordview SPCA’s annual golf day a huge success.<\/p>\n

This year the GCN is the media partner for the golf day and we are urging the community to assist us in making this a massive fund-raising event.<\/p>

<\/div>\n

The money will go a long way towards assisting the Germiston SPCA through its current financial crisis.<\/p>\n

So far a number of players have committed to the event, but we are still looking for about 40 more.<\/p>

<\/div>\n

What better way to spend a Friday, than by tackling the challenge of a golf course while raising money for a good cause?<\/p>\n

The event takes place at the Glendower Golf Club, from 11am, on November 7.<\/p>\n

The competition takes the form of a Four-ball Alliance Stableford, with two scores to count.<\/p>\n

The cost per four-ball is R2 000 and this includes your green fees and a light supper at the prize-giving.<\/p>\n

We are also still looking for prizes for the event, as well as people to sponsor holes.<\/p>\n

With regard to prizes for players, please donate four of the same type of prize to be handed out to the teams.<\/p>\n

Prize ideas include golf-related items, drinking flasks, car cleaning kits, Cadac gas cylinders, umbrellas, braai sets, tog bags, hampers, bottles of wine, golf shirts, golf towels, shavers, watches, etc.<\/p>\n

There will also be a raffle on the day and prizes for this will also be greatly appreciated.<\/p>\n

You are also welcome to make a monetary donation.<\/p>\n

Should you wish to sponsor a hole or green for the day, the cost thereof is R1 500 per green or hole.<\/p>\n

Only two watering holes are allowed on the day, one on each nine.<\/p>\n

You can come along set up your banners and plan some fun for the players.<\/p>\n
