On Aug. 24 members of the Kiwanis Club of Marietta Golden K and the Lost Mountain Kiwanis Club sponsored the 27th Annual Youth Charity Golf Tournament at BridgeMill Athletic Club in Canton that raised more than $40,000 for various charitable organizations.
They support Circle K Clubs at the college level, Key Clubs in high school, Builders clubs in middle schools, K kids programs and the Silver Pen writing contest in elementary schools. Kiwanians also provide mentoring and storytime reading at area schools.
More than 100 golfers representing local counties took part in the shotgun start event, which included goodie bags, greens fees, two mulligans and a raffle ticket.
Prizes were awarded for the Longest Drive, Straightest Drive and Closest to the pin.
The buffet lunch included a live auction that raffled off 15 gift baskets ranging in value from $350 to $500.
