2010 SPRING OUTING
Mark your calendars for
Monday, April 26, for the 2010 HCA Spring Outing. We will again be playing 2 -
18 hole courses at Cypresswood Golf Course, 21602 Cypresswood Dr., Spring, TX
77373. This always a fun day and benefits the HCA Scholarship Fund.
The Board of
Directors is very aware of the current economic climate and has made some
changes in the venue to help our sponsors stay within their reduced budgets.
All post-tournament activities (lunch, announcing tournament winners, closest
to the hole and longest drive winners, and drawings for mulligan and vendor
sponsored door prizes) will be held under the pavilion at Cypresswood. All
vendors wishing to have displays are encouraged to be hole sponsors; and, to
reach maximum exposure, consider one hole on each course. Each sponsor is also
asked to sponsor a door prize for the drawing. Forms for hole/beverage carts
sponsorships and team registration are below. We are looking forward to having
you join us.
