Adding to the beauty of their picturesque property, perfectly decorated this fall with vibrant red and gold foliage, officials at Montlake Golf Club are tossing in a dash of philanthropy by hosting a tournament to benefit the Chattanooga Area Food Bank on Nov. 7.
“We felt like we needed to do something for the community and get the golfers involved in raising money for the coming holidays,” said tournament director and sales manager Michael Field.
The tournament is open to anyone who wants to play the game and enjoy the scenery, but Field said the philanthropic activity is available to anyone who simply wants to give back.
Montlake Golf Club’s tournament to benefit the Chattanooga Area Food Bank is Nov. 7 at 9104 Brow Lake Road in Soddy-Daisy. Cost is $50 per player. Registration is at 8 a.m. and the tournament begins at 9 a.m. For more information or to sign up call Michael Field at 332-3111 or 503-6137. More information is also available here.
“Even if people don’t want to play golf they can come and drop off food,” said Field.
The club has put together tournaments to benefit organizations for the Special Olympics and disabled veterans.
“These guys are very community-oriented,” said Signal Mountain resident and golfer Jim Grieving. “It’s just a neat little place to play.”
The Nov. 7 tournament requires a $50 entrance fee and 10 canned food items. In exchange for their participation, golfers may expect to receive lunch, fellowship and a chance at winning cash prizes.
