Saturday, June 18, marked the 9th annual Southside Lions Club Drive for Sight golf tournament. The tournament is hosted at Southern Hills Golf and Country Club located conveniently off of Interstate I-40 in Baxter, Tennessee.
The tournament format was its usual 2 man scramble with 49 teams of all ages competing. During play the golfers were challenged with normal side games such as: closet to the pin, longest drive contest, closet to the line, and a possibility to win a $10,000 prize if a hole-in-one was aced on the 6th hole.
Lunch was provided afterwards with the awarding of numerous door prizes, 50/50 drawing, lucky ball drop, and the announcement of winners for the 4 established flights.
This fundraiser for the Southside Lions Club of Gordonsville is their most successful, allowing them to provide financial assistance and aid to local citizens whom have impaired vision. The Lions Club would like to extend the invitation to anyone who may be interested in playing next year.
The Southside Lions Club would like to thank all of the many sponsors that make the tournament a success each year!
