Tee time is set for 1 p.m. at the Crystal Lake Golf Course in Mapleville, R.I., and the Uxbridge Elderly Connection hopes to top funds raised in previous years.
The event is organized by Peter Di Battista, Pete Petrillo and Russ Rosborough, and will have a Shotgun or Florida style format. There will be a number of special challenges, such as a $1,000 prize for a hole-in-one on a par 3 and competition for longest drive.
Golfing will be followed with a buffet, which is included in the golf package. Members of the Uxbridge Elderly Connection and the general public are also invited for $25 per person. There will also be raffles and a live auction. (Last year’s top prizes included sports gear, a flat screen TV, a Blue Ray DVD player, a grill, and a limo/dinner/theatre night on the town.)
Participants may sign on for a full sponsorship for $650; team for $500; or individual for $100. The fee includes cart, golf tee-shirt, and dinner. A tee sign may be purchased for $100.
