More Than $3,100
The place: Eagle Watch Golf Course. The players:
local golf aficionados. The cause: the Emergency Children's Shelter of
Cherokee County.
More than 60 golfers participated in Internetspecials.com's
first Annual Golf Benefit for the Emergency Children's Shelter of Cherokee
County. Through generous donations from local businesses and individuals,
the tournament netted $3,151 for the shelter. The shelter, the first of
its kind in Cherokee County, offers refuge for children that are abused,
neglected or molested.
Organizers of the event especially wanted
to thank the Cherokee County Water Authority and Southstar Funding for
committing 32 golfers.
