IT'S swingtime!
YMCA Humber and Get Hooked on Positive Activities (GHoPA) are inviting local people and organisations to take part in a charity golf day to help raise much-needed funds for work with socially disadvantaged young people.
The day offers not only a fun day of golf, but a raffle and a charity auction, with prizes ranging from a signed England football shirt from the recent friendly against Brazil, a World Matchplay dartboard signed by Phil Taylor and seven other top players, and much more.
GHoPA managing director Mark Fenty said: "We are excited about our first joint fundraising event with the YMCA and all proceeds raised will help both organisations help more vulnerable young people in the region.
"The event is also to cement and celebrate the on-going partnership and our commitment to work together to help and support young people."
Places are still open for teams of four to take part, priced at £120 per team, and the event starts at 11.30am with a bacon bun and refreshments on arrival.
There is also fish and chips for all participants after their round.
"We would be very grateful for any businesses or individuals to donate raffle or auction prizes," said Mark.
"We will invite e-mail bids and pledges prior to the event to ensure that we maximize the opportunity to raise funds."
"People are also welcome to attend Grimsby Golf Club from 5.30pm on the day to bid on auction items."
If you are interested in taking part in the YMCA/GHoPA Golf Day or would like to take up one of the sponsorship packages or donate a prize, call Jonathan Byrne on 01472 693388 or e-mail info@gcymca.org.uk
