This is the eighth year my dear fried Valerie Casey is putting on a charity golf tournament to benefit the Tampa Fisher House, the residence on the campus of the James A. Haley Veterans Hospital on Bruce B. Downs (BBD) Blvd. (south of E. Fletcher Ave.) which houses (for no charge) the families and significant others of the wounded veterans being treated  at the hospital.

Valerie and her committee, led by her fellow New Tampa Noon Rotarian Barry Shuman, invite you to join them for a day of great food and golf on Friday, October 24, at Pebble Creek Golf Club (10550 Regents Park. Dr., off BBD).

The entry fee donation of $125 per player includes a delicious lunch, provided by the Little Greek restaurant on BBD (next to Publix in the New Tampa Center), greens fees, golf cart, “goody” bags, multiple prizes for top teams, putters and drivers, and the opportunity to win some great silent auction prizes. Lunch & registration begin at 11:30, with the shotgun start at 12:30.

For more info, email Valerie at ValCasey3@aol.com or call Barry Shuman at (516) 523-2678. For info about the Tampa Fisher House, visit FisherHouse.org. — GN
