A cherished tradition returns to the historic Atlantic City Country Club as preparations are underway for the 2024 edition of the Golf Fore Kids fundraiser. Set against the backdrop of one of America's most celebrated golf courses, this event has blossomed into a vital source of funding for programs dedicated to empowering young people in Atlantic City. Celebrating its fifteenth anniversary, the tournament continues to thrive under the generous support of South Jersey Gas and countless other contributors.
The essence of this event extends far beyond the fairways, according to Tracey Triniwell, CEO of the Boys & Girls Club of Atlantic City. Participants will experience not only an engaging day of golf but also opportunities to engage with fellow enthusiasts through contests, auctions, and prizes. Attendees can look forward to a hole-in-one challenge graciously sponsored by Chapman Auto Group, alongside a morning welcome featuring registration and breakfast starting at 8:30 a.m., followed by a shotgun start at 10 a.m. The day winds down with celebratory cocktails and an awards dinner later in the afternoon.
With unwavering dedication, organizers Jake Perskie and Steve Cocchi have guided this endeavor for years, ensuring its continued success. Their efforts exemplify how community involvement can transform lives, offering children safe environments, mentorship, and developmental resources essential for their growth. Those interested in participating or contributing should reach out via email or phone for further information, knowing that each contribution fosters hope and opportunity among the next generation of leaders and innovators.
