Fraser Valley – The University of the Fraser Valley athletic department will host its second annual Cascades Scholarship Golf Tournament on Thursday, June 23 at Chilliwack Golf Club.
The tournament serves as a key fundraiser for Cascades teams, and 100 per cent of net proceeds go to support student-athlete scholarships.
Last year’s inaugural event raised $28,500, equating to roughly eight full-tuition scholarships for UFV student-athletes.
This year’s edition of the Cascades Scholarship Golf Tournament will feature a 1 p.m. shotgun start, with long-drive, putting, and closest-to-the-pin contests running throughout the afternoon followed by a catered dinner and silent auction.
Single tickets are $250, and early-bird pricing (available through May 1) is $900 for a foursome. The ticket price covers green fees, use of a power cart, prizes, dinner, and all on-course activities.
