Join Howell's "Stop Heroin. Start Talking. Say NO." Campaign, Participate in the 20th Annual Charity Golf Outing Fundraiser

On April 27th, the Howell Township Municipal Alliance, in partnership with the Optimist Club of Howell, will hold its 20th Annual Charity Golf Outing, the Howell Township Mayor’s Cup Open, at Eagle Oaks Golf and Country Club. The day includes golfing on a scenic, highly-acclaimed course and a buffet-barbeque lunch, followed by the evening’s cocktail hour, sit-down dinner, live entertainment, golf award presentations, sponsor recognition, and prize and 50/50 raffle drawings. Non-golfers are also welcome to join in the after-golf festivities, as well as to volunteer their time during the golf outing. Each year, professional athletes and political representatives have participated in the event.

The Howell Alliance’s portion of fundraised money from the golf outing will be used to implement further awareness strategies and programs in our schools and community aimed at the prevention of drug, alcohol, and tobacco use amongst our township’s youth, with a focus on heroin and prescription drug abuse in light of Howell Township’s community-wide “Stop Heroin. Start Talking. Say No.” campaign and the national heroin epidemic.

If you are interested in registering golfers, volunteering your time, purchasing 50/50 raffle tickets, making a donation, or becoming a sponsor, please contact Alliance coordinator Ralph Hoffman, 732-938-4500 extension 4012.
