CLEARLAKE >> On Thursday, June 1, golf carts will be crisscrossing the Hidden Valley Lake Golf Course at St. Helena Hospital Clear Lake’s 13th Annual Charity Golf Tournament and Silent Auction. The always-popular event will include contests, prizes, raffles, a catered dinner and a silent auction in support of the hospital’s vision of building a community gym, pool and wellness center.
“Golf may be just a game, but our tournament makes a real difference for our patients, friends and neighbors,” said Philip “Flip” Fitch, the tournament director and a member of the surgical services team at St. Helena Hospital Clear Lake. “It’s great to see people out on the course having a fantastic time and knowing all the money raised is going to a cause that benefits everyone.”
The tournament will be held at the Hidden Valley Lake Golf Course and feature meals from the newly relaunched Greenview Restaurant. Out on the course, players will be invited to taste treats from local business and participate in games, as well as win hole-in-one prizes.
The 13th Annual Charity Golf Tournament will underwrite Phase 1 of St. Helena Hospital Clear Lake’s vision to create and build the Live Well Community Center, a space that will offer all Lake County residents access to a heated, indoor, swimming pool, basketball courts, a fitness studio, an industrial kitchen and educational spaces to host classes. The organization’s goal is to offer Lake County residents of all ages an array of fitness options in a place where they can gather, interact, and learn from one another.
