In 2018, an active volunteer suggested we host a golf tournament to help raise funds for our Thanksgiving Day campaign. At the time, we knew little about how to plan such an event and the thought of pulling something together that we knew so little about, was just too much to consider. In December of 2022, a supporter approached us at a fundraiser for another nonprofit and introduced us to a well known golf individual who plans golf tournaments in the area for a number of non-profits. After meeting with him, and discussing the details, we decided to move forward with our first annual golf tournament, and chose to take it to Brookstone Golf and Country Club with Monday, August 21st as the date. Proceeds from this tournament will help to fund our Thanksgiving and Christmas campaigns. Our Thanksgiving Day campaign focuses on providing traditional hot Thanksgiving Day meals to officers who are working the holiday. This is a large undertaking and we expect to send out over 400 meals to officers, admin and 911 who will be working, while most of us will be spending time with our families. The "Blue Family Christmas" gala offers officers and supporters an opportunity to celebrate the holidays together while raising funds that will help officers suffering with financial hardships due to catastrophic events, or life-altering medical diagnosis. The golf tournament will benefit both of these projects and we hope you will come be a part, and show your support for the men and women who serve in law enforcement all over Cobb County. For more information on the tournament, including sponsorship and how to register your team, please reach out to Bob Pierce at 678-467-4387 or email us at [email protected].
