Mid Coast Hospital will host its 31st annual Golf Fore! Health tournament on Sept. 4 at the Brunswick Golf Club. Proceeds from the event will benefit the hospital’s Center for Community Health & Wellness. The center, located at 329 Maine St. in Brunswick, helps patients prevent and manage chronic diseases, improve their daily lives and increase their overall well-being.
The center has received donations and support from many local businesses inspired by its impact, including the Norwegian Savings Bank, which recently donated $1,500 and is one of the sponsors of the golf tournament.
“It’s truly amazing to look at the list of classes and events that promote positive and healthy steps in the lives of community members,” said Dan Walsh, president and CEO of Norway Savings Bank, in a prepared press release about the community health center. “In addition, the walking, running and swimming exercise programs help increase physical activity, thereby improving the quality of life of participants.”
Team donation amounts to register for the tournament range from $300 to $7,500. Registration begins at 9 a.m. on Sept. 4 at the Golf Club, 165 River Road, with play beginning at 10 a.m. Following the conclusion of play, there will be a buffet dinner, awards ceremony and raffle drawing. Competitions during the tournament include Hole-in-One, Nearest to the Pin, Longest Drive and Straightest Drive, Putt Contest, Betting Hole and Raffle plus 50/50.
