Fore from afar! “Virtual” Golf Tournament to support the Plymouth, MA-based Hart Speech Foundation

Post-Golf Tournament dinner and awards celebrations are harder to manage than a shot deep in the rough.  Thus, the Ninth Annual Hart Speech Foundation Golf Tournament will be virtual and vibrant this Covid-year.   Virtual participants will submit their results between September 19, 2020 and October 31, 2020.

With the pandemic still in full swing, crowds being limited to 50 or less and the desire to keep everyone safe, the organization is hosting a virtual tournament this year. The culmination of the virtual event will even have a virtual cocktail party via Zoom.

All proceeds will be directed to scholarships for speech dysfluency. The Hart Speech Foundation is a recognized 501(c)(3) charitable organization.  The non-profit organization is dedicated to improving the lives of individuals who stutter through advocacy and scholarships for those in need of services.

Virtual golfers are encouraged to swing away at a course of their choice and share their photos and scores with the Hart Foundation.  Donation is $400 for a foursome or $100 for a single golfer.  Donation does not include the cost for the round of golf.

Tournament rules:

• Sign up via our website at www.hartspeech.org.
• Golf can be played at any Par 70-72 golf course, anywhere.
• Golfers playing in a foursome must play best ball rules.
• If the golfer has a handicap, then the handicap must be entered along with the score.

Golf participants will be entered into a raffle to win either a luxurious weekend on Nantucket.  The weekend getaway includes two day Jeep rental at Affordable Rentals, two round trip tickets on the Hy-Line Cruises ferry along with certificates for dinner or lunch at several of the local restaurants.  The value of this prize is $2000.
