The annual Salute Our Veterans Golf Tournament sponsored by the SunBird Lions Club and the Lions Foundation of Arizona will be held on November 15. There will be a 7:00 a.m. check in and an 8:00 a.m. shotgun start. The format is a four person scramble. There will be a $10,000 prize for all holes-in-one on Hole No. 3 and additional hole-in-one prizes on the other par three holes. There will also be prizes for gross and net winners in each flight, longest putt and closest-to-the-pin for both men and women. The price is $50 per player and, of course, includes coffee and donuts at check-in and lunch following golf. Applications are available outside the Pro Shop or from Fred Garmeson at 895-9363.
