REDDING, Calif. – Simpson University will hold its annual athletic fundraising golf tournament at Tierra Oaks Club on Friday, May 4.

Those interested in the golf tournament can register for $100 per person before May 1 by visiting simpsonu.edu/golftournament or calling (530) 226-4703. Registration is limited to the first 100 golfers.

All registered golfers will receive breakfast and lunch, and 18 holes of golf, including a cart. Golfers are also invited to attend an awards ceremony.

This year’s golf tournament will feature an auction and prize giveaway.

Simpson University Athletic Director Joe Griffin said, “Proceeds from past tournaments have had a huge impact on meeting the needs of our men’s and women’s intercollegiate sports programs. We’ve funded a softball fence, batting cages, bench chairs, a scorer’s table and new uniforms. Our local community directly influences our student-athletes, and they have blessed them greatly.”

This year’s title sponsors are Oxford Suites and Pepsi.
