With programs being cut in schools around the nation, patronizing the arts has never been more important. That's why we featured the Suzuki Strings Association's annual 9-Hole Golf Scramble on our front page this week. Suzuki Strings raises funds for Greenville schools to purchase stringed instruments for students taking lessons.
The 9-Hole Golf Scramble will take place Saturday, May 19th, at Hartline's Golf Center, located at 3771 I-30 East in Greenville. A $35 entry fee pays participants' green fee, cart fee, lunch and 5 raffle tickets. The tournament is limited to ten four-person teams, but non-golfers are welcome to attend, as well, and businesses and individuals can also sponsor a hole for $100. For more information, or to register, visit GSSA online, or contact Loren Honerstad at 903-268-4732.
Also featured in this week's paper is the Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive, which makes donating food to the hungry easier than ever. Simply place a bag of non-perishable food by your mailbox on Saturday, May 12th, and your letter carrier will pick it up and drop it off at the nearest food bank or pantry.
