Golf For Dad – In Support of Prostate Cancer

 

Over the course of their lives, one in seven Canadian men will develop prostate cancer. And one in 27 of them, will die from it.

On June 8th, 2012, Golf for Dad – in support of the Cape Breton Cancer Centre, will take place at The Lakes Golf Club, in Ben Eoin. Grab your favorite golf buddies and come out for a great golf day, all in support of the Cape Breton Cancer Centre. Included in your package is a pre game reception the night before the tournament, lunch and a BBQ on the course with a full steak dinner to end the day. 

All funds raised will be donated to the Cape Breton Cancer Centre, in support of Prostate Cancer.
