PETERBOROUGH, Ont. (February 24, 2016) – OSCAAR Racing is excited to announce it will host a golf tournament fundraiser in support of the York Region Anti-Bullying Coalition (YRABC) at Bradford Highlands Golf and Country Club on August 24, 2016.
A portion of proceeds from the event will support the YRABC, which is a non-profit advocacy group against bullying while helping to provide support for parents whose children are facing bullying.
“We have all been bullied at some point in our lives and know the pain it can cause,” said OSCAAR President Dave Gainforth.
“We want to give back. Bullying is become more prevalent and we wanted to focus on a charity that was a little bit smaller and would need the help,” said Karey Large, the event co-organizer. “My son is going through it right now. We wanted to choose something that hits close to home for people.”
Entry to the event is $125 per golfer and includes golf with a power cart on the day of the event at Bradford Highlands Golf and Country Club, lunch and dinner. The tournament will feature gift bags, door prizes and a silent auction.
The tournament is open to OSCAAR Racing drivers, team members, sponsors, fans and the general public. Golfers will have the opportunity to win a 2016 Chevrolet Malibu courtesy of Highland Chevrolet Buick GMC Cadillac in the Hole-in-One contest.
Hole sponsorships are available for $150 per hole. More information is available by contacting Dave Gainforth at oscaargainforth@gmail.com or Karey Large at kareylarge@yahoo.ca.
