Cash For Kids - Sunday 24th May

On Sunday 24th May, Radio Tay's Cash For Kids Charity comes to Strathmore, with the Strathmore Golf Centre hosting the annual Cash for Kid's Golf Competition.

Every year Cash for Kids assists around 25,000 children and young people most in need or at risk. Just about a month ago, the Charity handed out over £200,000 to such causes. Most of the money goes to handicapped children and organisations who work with these children but a small percentage goes to help other kids too.

For example, Cash for Kids gave a substantial amount to young Matthew Sime to help with travel costs for his visit later this summer to America to participate in the Wee Wonders championship in North Carolina and Blairgowrie High School received a cheque for £25,000 to promote sports events. These are just two examples of how the charity helps locally.

As such, Strathmore Golf Club is proud to be running this event on behalf of the Centre, and would like to encourage as many members as possible to take part. There some excellent cash prizes on offer, and also autographed items from Scotland's own Ryder Cup Captain, Colin Montgomery. If contributing to this worthy cause doesn't persuade you to enter, then perhaps the fact that Colin has promised to present the prizes should circumstances allow will.

Entry forms and full details can be found around the Clubhouse, and the Club hopes that as many of you as possible sign up for this great event.
