GALLOWAY TOWNSHIP – The Boys & Girls Club of Atlantic City will soon hold its annual fundraiser to support the club that many kids call their second home.

The 13th annual Golf Fore Kids will be held Sept. 28 at Seaview Golf Club and Resort, 401 S. New York Road in Galloway Township. Funds raised will benefit the club which provides the safe places, caring mentors, and life-enhancing programs that prepare kids and teens for great futures.

“Our mission is to help those kids who need us the most become their best selves on their paths to great futures,” CEO Dr. Charles A Wallace II said.

Golf Fore Kids starts at 8:30 a.m. with registration and a continental breakfast. Golfers tee off at 10 a.m. with shotgun start. They will enjoy a boxed lunch and participate in competitions, such as the putting contest, closest to pin, longest drive and hole-in-one. A cocktail reception and awards dinner starts at 3:30 pm.

New this year is a Pairing Party which will be held Sept. 27 at Atlantic City Country Club. All registered golfers receive complimentary admission.

Pairing Party sponsorships are available for $500 and include admission for two and a photo opportunity. Admission is a $150 donation for those who want to support the Club. There will be appearances by Mike Quick, former wide receiver for the Philadelphia Eagles for nine seasons, former Pittsburgh Steeler NFL linebacker and Coach Joey Porter Sr. and others. There will be a silent auction including the opportunity to win golf getaways.
