On Friday, June 8, 2012, we will be hosting our 5th Annual Golf “Fore” Recovery at the Arroyo Course in Red Rock Country Club in Las Vegas.

All funds raised will stay in Southern Nevada, benefiting our efforts in support of the Foundation’s mission.

The disease of addiction affects more than twenty-three million Americans every year, with less than 10% receiving the help they need. Our programs, services, and trainings offer valuable prevention education for parents, open pathways for recovery, and promote recovery’s positive impact.

Tournament tickets include your round of golf, golf cart, range balls and special awards luncheon at the gorgeous Red Rock Country Club.

This is a fantastic opportunity to have an awesome day on the greens while making a difference in our community!

The charitable recipients of this year’s event are Colors of Lupus Nevada www.colorsoflupusnevada.org and The American Autoimmune Related Disease Association www.aarda.org.
