“PARS 4 PAWS” CHARITY GOLF TOURNAMENT
The River Crossing Club held its First Annual “Pars 4 Paws” Charity Golf Tournament on June 25, 2012 to benefit the Bulverde Area Humane Society. More than 92 golfers registered and played in the tournament. The event raised more than $8,500 for BAHS plus an additional $1,000 in food and toys that were generously donated by the participants. Sixty mostly local businesses and other donors helped sponsor the tournament. “A hearty thank you to the 92 players and all the volunteers who helped make this a very successful golf benefit,” BAHS President Richard Lindell said at the awards luncheon.
