Golf enthusiasts and community supporters will have the opportunity to hit the links for a good cause this coming June, as the Adams County Sheriff's Office Orphans' Fund is slated to host its Inaugural Charity Golf Tournament. According to the Adams County Sheriff's Office, the event will take place at The Ranch Country Club in Westminster, offering a full day of golfing fun on June 2, at 11887 Tejon Street. With registration now open, individual players can secure their participation at $225 each, while a foursome can register for $800.

Starting bright and early, check-in kicks off at 6:30 AM, leaving plenty of time for golfers to get in the swing before the 8:00 AM shotgun start those attending can look forward to a series of mini-games, the excitement of competing for various prizes, and a post-round lunch provided by the organizers, but let's remember the true purpose of the event is to raise funds for a noble cause, supporting families of ACSO employees who’ve lost a loved one. Players are also given the option to purchase mulligans and string for bettering their shots, which are additions designed to enhance the game and increase the charitable contributions.

The Sheriff's Office Orphans' Fund aims to assist families by providing financial support for the higher education expenses of children who've lost a parent employed by the ACSO, whether the death occurred on duty or off. The Fund also facilitates annual scholarships through the George Hovorka Scholarship, benefiting the children of current and retired ACSO employees. The tournament's goal is to garner $50,000 to uphold this significant assistance, and as the ACSO Orphans' Fund is a recognized 501(c)(3) nonprofit, donors can deduct their contributions on their taxes.

There are more ways to contribute than simply joining the tournament, with numerous sponsorship opportunities offered to those hoping to make a larger fiscal and philanthropic impact, while several sponsorship tiers provide different levels of branding and exposure at the event.

Additionally, golfers of any skill level and participants in it simply for enjoyment are encouraged to register for this charitable occasion, the registration link is available on the ACSO's Facebook post.
