Integrity House to Host 9th Annual Golf Classic at Spring Lake Golf Club on May 18

Integrity House, a nationally recognized substance abuse rehabilitation center with locations in Newark and Secaucus, will host its 9th annual Golf Classic at Spring Lake Golf Club on Monday, May 18, 2015. The event will benefit Integrity House’s many treatment and support services including the Mary’s House project, which will provide housing to homeless individuals, and serve as secure housing that promotes substance abuse and socioeconomic rehabilitation.

“Each year, we are blessed to have the support of many generous businesses and community members at our Golf Classic and other fundraising events held throughout the year to help sustain our mission of helping individuals reclaim their lives,” said Robert Budsock, President & CEO of Integrity House. “Through events like the Golf Classic, we are able to raise awareness on the disease of addiction and collect critical funds that help us to expand our capacity and enrich the necessary services and meaningful programs that we provide to make positive changes in the lives of individuals, families and communities in need.”

Supporters of Integrity House, including business-owners, political figures, and community leaders, will be in attendance at the outing, along with many volunteers who donate their time to ensure a great day of golf and camaraderie. The event will commence at 10:30 a.m. with registration, driving range practice, and a putting contest, followed by a BBQ lunch at 11 a.m. and the shotgun start at 12:30 p.m. Attendees will also enjoy a reception and silent auction followed by dinner and awards later that evening.

Spring Lake Golf Club is a beautiful, and prestigious, private club, located on the Jersey Shore. Designed by George Thomas, the Spring Lake golf course opened in 1911. After a few significant renovations and improvements, it now features a challenging 6,482 yards of golf from the back tees for a par of 72. Through the Integrity House Golf Classic, golfers will have the opportunity to play this course, which has been the site for two NJSGA Opens and five other NJSGA events over the years.

Groups and individuals are encouraged to register for the Golf Classic, and can do so by contacting the Integrity House Golf Classic Committee at (973) 623-7246 or by email at susanlyons@integrityhouse.org. If you cannot attend the Golf Classic but would like to show your support, sponsorship opportunities are available and donations of prizes and merchandise for the silent auction are encouraged.
