Re : 15^TH ANNUAL PRIME MINISTER’S CHARITY GOLF CLASSIC – 2011

The Prime Minister’s Charity Golf Classic (PMCGC) is currently “driving” towards the staging of its  15^th annual fund-raising Golf Tournament .

This year we will be back in Trinidad  on Sunday September 09, 2011 and we tee off at the St. Andrews Golf  Club, Moka with another grand round of golf geared for great fun and enjoyment, all for Charity. A significant portion  goes towards the Children’s Life Fund.   The PMCGC has become synonymous over the years with a highly prestigious event and a must for golfers and sponsors alike.

Earlier this year the PMCGC at a function at the Preysal Community Centre, handed over 12 specialised and motorised wheel chairs, accessories, orthotics and other aids to children suffering with Cerebral Palsy to a value of $200,000.00.  Dr. Martin Carillo  from Miami,  spent the day fitting the children with their new wheelchairs and training the parents to properly care for the children. The PMCGC also funded Dr. Carillo’s visit to Tobago, where he met with several CP children and parents. Next in this year was a cheque presentation to our patron, our Prime Minister, for $75,000.00 towards the Children’s Life Fund. Last year, in 2010, the PMCGC in its continuous outreach responded to the plight of the flood victims throughout the island, by donating food hampers and mattresses to affected families.

Our Tournament, this year will again bring together teams of two players each in a 2-Ball format. As usual, there will be ample refreshments and attractions from “tee-to-green”, while the prizes for the top  teams   are always full of surprises, not to mention an opportunity to win a car in any one of the four  (4)  hole-in-one” prizes on offer by Life Style Motors.

Our usual Awards Function will be staged immediately following the game.

Team sponsors are encouraged to get on board at this time, while golfers are urged to play their part in linking up with their regular sponsors.
