The Second Annual Charlie Dawn Campbell Fundraiser Golf Tournament is scheduled for Saturday, Sept. 6, at the Delaware Springs Golf Course in Burnet.
Campbell, mother of two and a resident of Burnet, was seriously injured on the opening day of dove season, Sept. 1, 2013, in an ATV accident on a private Burnet County ranch. She suffers paralysis and now requires continued medical and rehabilitation care.
The tournament for her benefit is scheduled for 1 p.m. and the format is a four-person scramble. Entry fee is $75 per player. Prizes will be awarded for placing teams, closest to the pin and longest drive, and raffle tickets will be sold during the day for prize items. There will be sausage wraps sold on the course and burgers will be served after the tournament for all players.
The tournament is currently seeking hole sponsors in support of the event. Businesses or private sponsors are accepted. The hole sponsor fee is $100. To become a sponsor, contact Gary Campbell at 512-234-0798 or Kathy Griffith at 512-755-1676.
