Golf tournament to support athletics foundation

Parents, community leaders, coaches and friends come together to support Homewood High School and Middle School athletics through the Homewood Athletic Foundation (HAF).

“The HAF was created so community supporters of Homewood athletics could ensure that our student athletes not only have the ability to compete and succeed at the highest levels, but that their experience participating in our team sports is a great lifelong memory,” said Jay Moss, one of the HAF’s founding board members.

Moss said the foundation achieves its mission by funding supplemental training, equipment and activities through grants to different sports. Last year’s grants allowed the volleyball, basketball and cross-country teams to travel for out-of-state tournaments during their seasons. Additionally, the football team received $4,000 for end zone video equipment.  

One way they help fund these grants is through an annual golf tournament.  

This year’s fundraiser will be Wednesday, Sept. 23 at noon at Highland Park Golf Course, which is located at 3300 Highland Ave. S.     

The cost for the golf tournament is $150 per individual or $500 for a team of four. Hole sponsorships are available for $250 per hole, as well as corporate sponsorships.   

Participants can register for the tournament online at homewoodaf.org, by picking up registration forms at Homewood High School or by contacting Jay Moss at 515-5235 or jay@redmtnrealtyco.com.
