The Veterans Day Golf Tournament hosted by the Quail Creek Veterans’ Golf Association raised over $4,000 for local veterans’ charities while providing a fun day of scramble golf, raffle prizes and lunch at the Madera Clubhouse. Over 140 golfers participated in the holiday event held on Monday, November 11.
QCVGA is open to all veterans, men and women, from all branches of the military, Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, Coast Guard, and Merchant Marines. The mission of the club is to provide an opportunity for veterans to get together to golf and also to raise funds to support both veterans and currently serving military families in the Green Valley and Tucson area.
According to Publicity Chair and Tournament Organizer Tom Haberer, “This was our most successful QCVGA tournament ever. We were able to raise money for worthy veterans’ charities as well as awareness of our club. The fundraising effort allowed us to make donations to several veterans and military service member organizations including the Wounded Warrior Project and the Tucson VA Hospital.”
Anyone interested in joining the Quail Creek Veterans’ Golf Association is encouraged to contact Membership Chair Jim Robinson at 399-1045 or pick up a QCVGA application in the Pro Shop.
