Dad's Club Golf Tournament

Volunteers needed - Not a golfer? Keep May 17 on your calendar anyway and come spend a day outdoors helping the Dads' Club raise money for our students. If you are available to volunteer, please drop us a line at holyfamilydadsclub@gmail.com so we can add you to our volunteer list. Thanks!
We need your donations!
Donations needed! As you go out to make your father’s day purchases, why not pick up something to help support the golf tournament? Your donations will be used to make baskets to auction off at the golf tournament. Proceeds from the golf tournament will be contributed towards installing a shade cover over the school’s new outdoor multi-purpose sports court. Don’t know what to get? Here’s a few ideas: Grilling items (what dad doesn’t love to grill?), sports items (memorabilia, game tickets, etc.), vouchers (hunting, fishing, golfing), gift cards (if you love eating there, they’ll love eating there).
All items can be taken up to Tracy at the front office. For questions, please contact:
