The East Naples Foundation is holding its inaugural golf tournament on Saturday, Oct. 24, at Naples Lakes Country Club.

A shotgun start begins the event at 8:30 a.m. Naples Lakes is located on Collier Boulevard just north of Rattlesnake Hammock Road.

The net proceeds from the golf outing will be used to fund various East Naples Civic Association endeavors, such as providing scholarships to high school students, supporting community activities during the Christmas holiday and other programs supporting the East Naples community

The Foundation is the not-for-profit philanthropic arm of the East Naples Civic Association. The foundation was recently formed to help address the needs of the community and enhance the quality of life for all the residents in the unincorporated southern and southeastern Greater Naples.

The entry fee is $125 per person, which includes greens fee, golf cart, continental breakfast, great prizes and a fantastic awards buffet lunch at the Naples Lakes Clubhouse.

We also invite participation in this important event with your sponsorship of $500-plus, $200-plus, $100-plus, $50 hole or cart sponsor, donations of prizes, gift certificates or participation as a volunteer.
