Dear Club Manager,

We are sending you this letter to ask for your support for Junior Golf in Oregon and Southwest Washington.  The Children’s Course/The First Tee of Greater Portland and Oregon Junior Golf have partnered together to create a joint fundraising event to help grow the game of golf for children in Oregon and South West Washington.  Please consider sponsoring a team of four individuals from your club to attend this event.  Your support allows us to grow the game for children starting in elementary schools through high school graduation.  We are hoping that through a strong collaboration of people who work in the golf industry, collectively we will be able to further grow the game of golf during a time when the trends are shifting downward.  The details are listed below.

We are excited to invite you to participate in the 2015 Pacific Office Automation Swing FORE Junior Golf FUNraiser presented by adidas.  This year’s event will be held on Monday, June 1st hosted by Oswego Lake Country Club.  The event benefits both Oregon Junior Golf and The Children’s Course/The First Tee of Greater Portland.  Each year, these organizations positively impact more than 10,000 youth using the game of golf to build character and foster healthy, active lifestyles.    

The format is a four person shamble, including gross and net prizes, welcoming players of all skill levels to compete in this fun event.  Your entry includes a box lunch, golf and cart, competition, prizes, dinner and a $50 voucher toward the adidas/TaylorMade Mobile Pro Shop.  We will also feature on-course games and a silent auction.  Below is the schedule of events for the day:

• 11:00AM         Registration, box lunch, unlimited use of practice balls
• 1:00PM            Shotgun start (18-hole shamble)   
• 6:00PM            Dinner, raffle, and silent auction 

Put together your Foursome FORE Fun or let us place you with a group.  Complete the enclosed entry form by May 18, 2015.  If you are unable to participate, you can still make a donation or enter the Bandon Dunes Raffle!  This year, we are again offering a getaway valued at $3,720 including 2 nights Lily Pond Lodging for four (double occupancy) and 8 rounds of golf at Bandon Dunes Golf Resort!  ** New this year ** all donations (or entry fees) associated with this event are matched 100%*, thanks to a $25,000 matching challenge grant awarded from the Maybelle Clark Macdonald Fund!  

Thank you for your tremendous support of Junior Golf!  Please contact Robyn Lorain with any questions at [email protected] or (503) 981-4653 ext.227.
