Golf Tourney Raises Funds for Moms, Kids

VISTA, CA (September 19, 2003) - Oak Hills Covenant Church is sponsoring its ninth annual Golf Fore Youth tournament on September 29 at Shadowridge Country Club.

Tournament registration, practice and a continental breakfast begin at 9 a.m., followed by a "shotgun" start at 11:30 a.m. An auction and awards banquet at 5:00 p.m. will conclude the day's events. Proceeds help provide operating funds for North San Diego County Solutions for Change, which assists homeless mothers and children. It also helps fund scholarships ("camperships") to enable needy kids to attend Alpine Covenant Conference Center in southern California and aids middle and high school teen outreach ministries of Young Life and the "Rock" Youth Ministries of Oak Hills Covenant Church of Vista.

Golf Fore Youth has turned into a stellar fundraiser as last year's tournament raised more than $34,000. In addition to funds raised through tournament registration fees and auctions, a number of corporate sponsors help underwrite Golf Fore Youth. Past tournament corporate sponsors have included the San Diego Chargers and Padres professional sports teams, the renowned Southern California restaurant chain, In-N-Out Burger, and nationally known golf equipment manufacturers such as Acushnet, Taylor Made and Club Corporation of America.

Tournament host Shadowridge Country Club is well known in Southern California as a challenging 36 hole, par 72 championship course and is the centerpiece of Shadowridge, an extensive planned community and home to Oak Hills Covenant Church.
