DRPO Golf Tourny

Hello All: Hope this finds you far flung golfers and your families all doing well. The DRPO has had one of its best years yet in fund raising and building projects started and completed. We are finally showing the kind of progress all of our work and your support merits. Thanks to all of you who've been there for the Refuge over the years.

One of our biggest fund raisers continues to be the annual golf tourny. This is an invite and appeal to join us once again...or for the first time...for a day of good fun for a good cause. The tournament this year is again at Knollwood CC in Granada Hills, 12040 Balboa Blvd, OCTOBER 3, CHECK IN AT 1100, TEE OFF AT 1300 ( 1 PM ). $125 for everything...cart, balls, lunch, awards dinner. Hope you can join us.

My foursome is full...so I'm not asking you to sacrifice your score by playing with the likes of me, and you can pull together one that might actually have a chance.

To play, send entries to : Ann Brunzell 221 N Figueroa St. Suite 550, LA CA 90012. For more info, contact Ann at 661 406 6399, or 213 202 5487, or via email at abrunzell@msn.com. I'm avail via email or at 626 484 2205. Hope to see you there.

Thanks,
Gary Brennan.
