Mount Laurel, NJ – Samaritan is set to host their 2024 “Drive “FORE! A Good Cause,” the organization’s annual golf tournament presented by The Richardson Family Dealerships, on Monday, June 24, 2024, at Little Mill Country Club in Marlton. The 18-hole, scramble-format tournament will begin with registration at 10:00 a.m., a shotgun start at 11:15 a.m. and will end with a reception and awards dinner around 4:30 p.m. All proceeds from the event will support the not-for-profit’s comprehensive family of services, which benefit seriously ill patients and their families and those grieving a loss.
“Each year, we look to our annual golf tournament as an opportunity for the community to come together to show support for our patients throughout South Jersey and our organization’s commitment to providing quality, life-enhancing care,” says Phillip W. Heath, president and CEO of Samaritan. “This tournament would not be possible without the generosity of our sponsors, volunteers, golfers and, of course, our Samaritan golf committee and returning golf committee co-chairs, Cliff Mancine and Roy Fazio. We are so grateful to all those who make this event such a success year after year!”
This year’s tournament will once again feature the Lexus Champions for Charity, sponsored by Lexus of Cherry Hill, offering an exclusive chance to play at the famous Pebble Beach! This unique auction opportunity will take place during the post-event banquet. Proxy bidding will be available for those who are unable to attend. In addition, there will be on-course contest opportunities, sponsored by Challenge Sponsor Mancine Optical, 50/50 raffles and more. Visit Samaritan’s event page for complete details: www.SamaritanNJ.org/Golf.
An online auction offering exclusive rounds of golf, sports tickets and more exciting prizes will also accompany the tournament, allowing golfers, as well as those who are not able to attend, the opportunity to bid on a variety of items – from exclusive rounds of golf, unique experiences, amazing baskets and more! The online auction will open Monday, June 17 at 6:00 p.m., but those interested can pre-register online: www.SamaritanNJ.org/Golf.
Samaritan is thrilled to report that all spots for golfing in this year’s tournament are already filled.
