Play for P.I.N.K - Journey at Pechanga

Play for P.I.N.K. Results


Play for P.I.N.K. (PFP) has raised over $92 million to fund groundbreaking breast cancer research—research that’s already saving lives, improving outcomes, and uncovering new approaches to this challenging disease. This is our 3rd year donating to the Play for P.I.N.K. organization because they PLAY WITH PURPOSE and provide SERIOUS SUPPORT through sporting events. Our Chapter’s leadership is proud to once again host this year’s event at Journey at Pechanga.

 

What began in 1990 as a single golf tournament among friends has grown into a nationwide movement, with PFP events now held in 30 states across the country. This event is near and dear to our hearts, promoting women's health awareness for our members and their families.


We had a wonderful turnout of 60 people and offered two different formats of play for the day: 4-person Scramble and 2-person Better Ball. In Scramble we awarded 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th Place Net Teams and1st Place Gross Team. In Better Ball we had two flights in which we awarded 1st, 2nd, 3rd Place Net Teams and 1st Place Gross Team in each Flight.


On behalf of our tournament, $5 of every registration fee went towards the event's donation. Our sale of magic putts and mulligans, along with our 50/50 Drawing, helped raise even more money for donation.

$1,880
