Children's Guild's Golf Classic

The Children’s Guild, which serves children and adolescents who are difficult to educate due to autism, multiple disabilities and trauma, will hold its sixth annual golf classic with celebrity golfers. The fundraiser will benefit The Children’s Guild’s Janet and Frank Kelly Autism Center.

Hayfields Country Club’s championship golf course, which stretches more than 7,000 yards with 68 bunkers and six ponds, has hosted six PGA Champions Tour events.

The Children’s Guild’s golf classic will feature sports celebrities including Billy Ripkin, former Major League Baseball player and broadcaster; Ken Singleton, former Major League Baseball player and broadcaster; Qadry Ismael, former National Football League wide receiver; and Tippy Martinez, former Major League Baseball pitcher.

Registration costs $250 for individuals and $800 for groups of four. It includes green fees and access to the driving range, golf cart and 18 holes at Hayfields Country Club. In addition, registration includes a continental breakfast, course beverages and lunch buffet as well as golfer gifts, door prizes, sponsor gift bags, team photo and first-, second- and third-place prizes.

CECA, a full-service architectural and engineering firm, is the title sponsor of the event. For information about sponsorships or registration, visit http://childrensguild.org/SpecialEvents/GolfClassic.aspx or contact Tom Willis at 410-491-5026 or willist@childrensguild.org.
