The Strathmore Golf Club is hosting their seventh annual dinner fundraiser and silent auction on April 10 (7 p.m.) at Stix Restaurant located in the clubhouse.
“It’s certainly opened to the public, anybody can attend and money is split between projects that we do at the golf course. We always donate to a charitable organization and this year $2,500 from that night is going to the Albert 55 Plus Summer Games (Committee),” said Brian Bassen, general manager of the golf club. “With the 55 Plus Games coming to Strathmore, we just thought it would be a good year to commit to that group.”
The other funds raised through the silent auction will go towards various projects that are ongoing around the club.
“The one that comes to mind is a brand new deck that we’ve built just outside the clubhouse,” said Bassen. “Then any other projects some of the other money will go towards like the painting of the club house, our front sign that we bought from the high school, so a few different things.”
The evening’s itinerary will include a dinner where it’s mainly a time to socialize, as well as a silent auction.
“It’s a $15 dinner ticket and that gets a full roast beef dinner with dessert, we have a cash bar and it’s really just a social event,” said Bassen. “We’ll get a lot of members, people from the community here supporting it.”
Tickets for the event can be purchased at the Strathmore Golf Club.
