Golfers and non-golfers are invited to tee off at the Brantley Center’s 39th Annual Golf Tournament at Waikoloa Village Golf Course on Sunday, April 23, 2017. The tournament is a benefit to raise critical funding for the non-profit organization’s programs and services for adults with disabilities.
The tournament will begin at 8 a.m. with a shotgun start, two-person best ball modified format. The entree fee is $125 per player and includes golf, lunch and prizes, as well as a chance to win $10,000.
The Brantley Center depends on government funding and grants from charitable organizations to provide its services, and the golf tournament fills a critical need throughout the year.
