Following on from the massive success of the inaugural 2022 event, the Lions Club Charity Golf Day is back this June!
Businesses and members of the community are encouraged to get together a team, no matter the skill level, enthusiasm is the main ingredient needed for a great day on the green.
There will be prizes awarded to players throughout the day and community raffles on offer.
There will also be live music in the afternoon, food and drink vendors and raffles for spectators and players alike.
The 2022 event raised over $10,000 for the Proserpine Hospital.
“We were quite surprised with the amount we raised last year,” said Allan Gravelle of the Whitsunday Lions Club.
The funds were spilt between the maternity ward, the children’s ward, and the palliative care ward, with $6,000 being used to purchase chairs for patient families.
“One of the major items was chairs that convert into beds worth $6,000, mainly used by parents when their children are being treated in hospital. They are being well received,” said Mr Gravelle.
For the 2023 event, the Lions Club will distribute the funds to local causes and charities throughout the year, with Proserpine Hospital a likely recipient once again.
“We hope for good weather and good involvement, considering what a great turnout we had last year.”
Be sure to register for the event and not miss out!
