Players, sponsors made glow ball tourney a success
Letter to the editor:
On behalf of the board of directors at Rebuilding Together Greater Haverhill Inc., we would like to extend our deep appreciation for the support for the annual Glow Ball Golf Tournament fundraiser held on Monday, Sept. 21, 2009 at Murphy's Garrison Par 3 Golf Center.
Although this is a small event, it is always a blast! Imagine 50 golfers roaming in complete darkness, with only a flashlight, aiming a glow-in-the-dark golf ball at a tiny glow stick attached to the pin on each of the greens! There has been a loyal following for the past seven years and team spots filled quickly this year.
The donations to the raffle and auction from local businesses make it extra special and we are grateful to the individuals and local business that helped to make this year's event a great success.
All contributions and especially major sponsors, (Pentucket Bank, Trinity EMS, Sarah's Place, Dunkin Donuts of Saco, Maine, Atwood Memorial, H.L. Farmer and Sons Funeral Homes) made a BIG difference in meet the Rebuilding Together organizational goals to provide home repair services to low-income, elderly, disabled and families in our community at no cost to them.
Additional contributions and sponsorships came from: Mary Ellen Daly O'Brien, Minco Corporation, Granite Fields Golf Club, Bradford Country Club, Laschi Garden Center, T-Bone/Cactus Jack's, Olivia's, Mr. Mikes, Shoe City Hardware, EZWay Cleaners, Merrimack Valley Painting, Domino's Pizza, Boston Coffee Cake, the Sign Center, Sal's Pizza and Peg's (Mathieson) awesome brownies as well as several of our own RT board members and volunteers!
We appreciate all participants and the players who came out on the brisk fall night. We hope to see everyone back in the spring for the regular daylight version!
Have a great fall!
