You still have time to participate in the 14th Annual Fundraiser Golf Outing. The event will be held Saturday, June 3, 2017 at Hills’ Heart of the Lakes Golf Course in Brooklyn.

This annual fundraiser combines friendship, fun, golf, and lunch while raising funds to meet community needs right here in Manchester. Whether as a golfer, a sponsor, or volunteer, the event provides a variety of ways for participation: sign up to play golf (or better yet, bring a foursome); sponsor a hole with a donation; help underwrite costs through donor partnerships; donate gift certificates or merchandise for the raffle; or volunteer to help out on the day of the event.

The fundraiser benefits the Manchester’s Community Resource Center (CRC) and Manchester Area Chamber of Commerce (MACC).The Community Resource Center  serves individuals and families in need by offering programs to improve their lives, promote volunteerism, and enhance the welfare of the Manchester community. Regular assistance is provided to our community neighbors with temporary or long-term needs, including food pantry, public benefits, utility assistance, job search assistance, tax preparation assistance, and more. The Manchester Area Chamber of Commerce promotes and stimulates the commercial vitality of Manchester and its members and organizes events including the Business Expo, Christmas in the Village parade, downtown Christmas lights, and more.

Organizers would like to thank the community for its outstanding support for the CRC & MACC Golf Outing over the past 13 years. At least $80,000 has been raised to help fund these community projects. Golfers, sponsors, and volunteers are encouraged to sign up today to help make this year’s event a resounding success!
