10 Aug Sept 10: Tom Ponsot Memorial Golf Tournament

Many people have fond memories of attending summer camp while they were growing up. Friendships were formed, knees were skinned, challenges were conquered and most of all, life long lessons were learned. Now that we are older we are glad places like that still exist for our own kids and grand-kids.

Camp Cotubic is one such place and it held a special place in the heart of Mr. Tom Ponsot who passed away in 2005. Tom saw the great potential of Camp Cotubic and volunteered his time and financial resources to preserve it as a place where his own grand-kids and many other children could continue to have summer camp experiences. Tom served as the Chairman of the Board for several years and was passionate about the camp’s ministry.

One of the challenges summer camps face is raising the financial resources to maintain the high quality programs of the camp. The upcoming 7th Annual Tom Ponsot Memorial Golf Tournament will help in that way, with all proceeds going to support the ministries of Camp Cotubic.

Date: September 10, 2011
Time: Registration at 8 am, shotgun start at 9 am.
Location: Clear Creek Golf Course, 10930 N 300W, Huntington, Ind.
Cost: $50 per person.

How can you help? First of all we need teams. The tournament will use a Florida scramble format with teams of four. The cost is $50 per person and includes cart, green fees, snacks and lunch. We would love to have

you join us. So, enlist some friends and reserve your spot today.

If you would like to provide further help we have a number of other opportunities for you. We are looking for individuals, businesses, or other groups (churches, men’s groups, etc.) to sponsor holes and tournament prizes. Hole sponsorships cost $100 per hole. We also will have special prizes for a variety of competitions (longest drive, closest to the pin, etc.) and are looking for sponsors to donate prizes or cash for these events.
