Early Bird(ie)s Win: Register for Our Golf Tourney at Harding Park

August 30th, 2011

Fall is a busy time for everyone, but not so busy—we hope—that you can’t award yourself one day off to refresh, kick back and golf with old friends and new. The golf course is also a great location for serious networking. Add to that, lots of prizes, a raffle drawing, dinner and drink tickets—and the good feeling of giving to our chapter scholarship fund.

Skill level is not a concern as this is a scramble format.

Register as a single online or download the flier for pairs and foursomes.

Early-bird registration through Sept. 12.
