United Way takes golf indoors for 2nd annual event Saturday
NORWICH – It’s time to pull out that trusty putter once again as the Chenango United Way prepares for its 2nd annual Indoor Miniature Golf Event, to be held from 10 a.m. to 11 p.m. on Saturday at the Norwich American Legion, 29 Sheldon Street.
Sponsored by a number of local businesses and organizations, the all-day event will feature 18 holes of fun-filled, indoor miniature golf, according to Chenango United Way Executive Director Elizabeth Monaco. Each hole – constructed by one of the 18 individual hole sponsors – presents its own unique challenges and it’s a perfect opportunity to have some fun while supporting a great cause, she added.
The event will feature a cash bar, food will be available throughout the day beginning at noon and several local businesses have donated a variety of items for a basket raffle and silent auction. In addition, participants are urged to come in costume if they wish to try for the “coveted 2nd annual mini-golf Best Costume plaque,” laughed Monaco.
A plaque will also be awarded to the business or organization which sponsored and constructed the best hole, as voted by participants throughout the day.
The mini-golf event has now officially replaced the local United Way’s former, traditional golf outing, reported Monaco, as a way to get families and non-golfers more involved.
“The mini-golf event is certainly geared more toward entire families, from children to adults, rather than the traditional golf enthusiast,” said Monaco. “It’s also a great way for us to start off the campaign year and get the word out. That’s why it’s so important for this event to be successful.”
All proceeds from the event will benefit the Chenango United Way’s fall campaign, she added.
Cost for the event is $3 per person or $10 for a team of four. For more information contact the Chenango United Way at 334-8815 or visit www.chenangouw.org.
