YOUR WEEKEND: Doggie Golf Tournament and Commercial Center open house round out events
June 19, 2008 - 8:28 am
Break out the big dog at Silverstone
Like golf? Love golden retrievers? Then think about combining both of your passions June 21 at Silverstone Golf Club, 9400 Cupp Drive, when the Golden Retriever Rescue of Southern Nevada unleashes its scramble-style tournament, starting at 7:30 a.m. You don't have to be a pro to play, just head out and have fun while helping to raise funds for those four-footed furballs otherwise known as man's best friend. The cost per player is $125; $400 for a four-person team and, no, your puppy putter doesn't count. Following the tourney, all golfers will enjoy a barbecue awards lunch, tee prizes and various contests. Call 598-4653.
