SIDavie
Gearing Up
for Annual Golf
Tournament!
Soroptimist International of Davie will host their primary fund raising event with the 13th Annual Golf Tournament to be held Saturday, September 29 at Bonaventure Country Club’s West Course. The club is seeking support from the community and offers several different ways to participate in the Soroptimist Golf Tournament, including foursome teams, sponsors, program ads and tee signs. Registration begins at 7 AM with a continental breakfast followed by a shotgun start at 8 AM. A morning of golfing on one of South Florida’s most beautiful courses will be followed by a luncheon that includes free drinks, raffle and door prizes and a terrific silent auction.
Soroptimist International of Davie shares one common goal: to foster the ideal of service. They are community leaders working together to improve the quality of life for their fellow human beings locally while supporting global human rights efforts.
The club meets twice a month, on the first and third Tuesday of each month, and they welcome women who are seeking to give back to the community through service. The second meeting each month is a “program” meeting and informative presentations on topics ranging from health care to conservation of natural resources are provided. The club featured Maureen Mann, Executive Director of Outpatient/Cancer Services at Holy Cross Hospital as guest speaker at their August program meeting, demonstrating the quality of their programming.
SIDavie was chartered in 1986 and took on preservation and restoration of Old Davie School as their first community service project. Today, the school, built in 1918, is fully restored and serves as a museum of local history and culture. Soroptimist International of Davie went on to adopt many other causes to support, including Project Stable, EASE Foundation, Davie Elementary School and the annual Women’s Opportunity Award which provides financial support for training to women returning to the workplace.
Anyone interested in attending a meeting or playing in the tournament should contact Susan Starkey at 954-882-0227 or Barbara Granger at 954-309-1842. Soroptimist International of Davie is a wonderful club and provides significant community support throughout the year. They are a charter member of Soroptimist International of the Americas, Inc.
