Va., Aug. 30, 2006-Northern Virginia
Family Service (NVFS) invites community members,
local business leaders and other golf fans
to come out for a memorable day of golf and
camaraderie while supporting children and
families at the Fifth Annual Golf Tournament
on Sept. 28 at Stonewall Golf Club in Gainesville,
Va.
"We
are thrilled to host our fifth annual golf
tournament and we hope the community will
join us for a meaningful afternoon. While
it is sure to be an enjoyable day, this event
also allows participants to support children
and families in our area who are in great
need," said NVFS President and CEO Mary
Agee.
Tournament
attendees will play a round of golf, participate
in silent and live auctions and enjoy dinner
at this prestigious club. Funds raised by
tournament sponsorships will support NVFS
programs that teach, empower and encourage
families to improve their quality of life.
Last year's tournament raised nearly $40,000.
