LYNN — The Lynn Housing Authority & Neighborhood Development (LHAND) will hold its 18th Annual Scholarship Golf Tournament on Friday, Sept. 30 at 3:30 p.m. at Gannon Municipal Golf Course.
The corporate sponsor for this year’s event is McGrath Enterprises. The tournament, which is sold out, will feature about 100 golfers. Tickets are still available for the barbecue dinner which will begin at 5:30 p.m. Also featured will be a silent auction, raffles and entertainment.
The LHAND has given over $250,000 to high school seniors since the scholarship program began. This past year alone $30,000 was given to graduating seniors. LHAND has awarded scholarships to over one hundred and seventy-five students and Awards of Merit to over seventy-five community active high school seniors thanks in part to generous donations from friends of the LHAND. An event of this kind would not be possible without the support of friends and local businesses.
The silent auction will feature themed baskets created by employees as well as many wonderful raffle items donated by local businesses. Tickets for a barbecue dinner to start at 5:30 p.m. are still available and are priced at $30 each. Please contact Jon Thibault at (781) 581-8627 or [email protected] for tickets or more information.
