A great day of golf, food and fun awaits golfers of all levels as Frisco Family Services hosts its 11th Annual Mayor’s Golf Classic on July 1 at 9 a.m. at the Stonebriar Country Club Country Club Course.
Proceeds from the golf classic benefit FFS’ programs and services that assist over 3,200 individuals each year. Even with the recent economic upswing, Frisco Family Services has seen an increase in demand for its services, so the success of the Mayor’s Golf Classic is critical.
Spots still remain to play in the four-person team scramble. In addition to awards and special recognition for the top three teams, there will be prizes for a putting challenge, longest drive and closest to the pin. There will be multiple opportunities to win prizes for a hole in one, including $10,000 cash and a new BMW. Breakfast and an awards luncheon will also be held.
Baylor Medical Center at Frisco returns this year as the Presenting Sponsor. Baylor’s continued commitment and partnership with FFS demonstrates their dedication to helping those in need or in crisis in the Frisco and Frisco ISD communities. When the hospital first opened its doors in 2002, they immediately began providing financial support for FFS clients, supporting FFS programs by hosting food and toy drives, and preparing hot meals once a month for clients.
"Our partnership with Baylor and others like them in the community has provided the support necessary for Frisco Family Services to carry on our mission,” Melanie Perkins, development director, said. “Together, we are able to keep food on the table and roofs over the heads of our clients, which has a positive impact on everyone in the community.”
Other premier sponsors for this year’s Mayor’s Golf Classic include Brinkmann Ranch, Rent-A-Center, Community Trust Bank, Town & Country Roofing, Genband, Tye Williams Financial Services and Titan Consulting. Opportunities to be a sponsor, donate prizes or include an item in our player goody bags are still available.
The Mayor’s Golf Classic also features a raffle. Everyone is encouraged to purchase a ticket for $10 for a chance to win two $500 airline vouchers or a $250 Visa gift card. Winner need not be present to win.
