THE bar has been set extra high for this year’s Smile for a Child John Piercy Memorial Charity Golf Day – and there are still sponsorship places available.
The event will take place at the Tewantin Noosa Golf Club on Friday 19 September, with the goal to reach $30,000.
The charity event has been running for eight years with a total of more than $240,000 raised with the biggest single year being 2009 with $53,000 raised.
The same committed sponsors have already opted back in for another year and include Sharp Sunshine Coast, Callaway Golf, Lion, ZRG Golf Tewantin Noosa Golf Club Pro Shop, The Sheraton Noosa Resort and Spa and Hotel Laguna.
Tewantin Noosa Golf Club bar manager Glenn “Puck” Puckeridge said the event was one of the most enjoyable and most highly regarded in the region.
“We’d like to ask residents to support the event by purchasing a raffle ticket for five dollars,” he said.
If you see Puck out and about, buy a raffle ticket and support the Smile for a Child charity.
Smile for a Child is the initiative of six clubs in the Noosa area; Sunshine Beach SLSC, Noosa Heads Surf Club, Noosa Yacht and Rowing Club, Tewantin Noosa RSL, Tewantin Noosa Golf Club and Cooroy RSL in partnership with Clubs Qld and ‘Smile For A Child’ to support local children’s charities.
