Charity Golf Outing: The Cliffs at Keowee Vineyards
Charity Golf Outing: The Cliffs at Keowee Vineyards
This is annual Golf Tournament is a major fundraiser for the Luke H. Chatman Scholarship but has supported MLK Memorial and MLK Youth Program, as well. It has been held since 1996, annually since 2003. It has been held at various local golf courses in the Greenville Area.
In 2018, this event took on a new format. The event will be a golf outing, rather than a tournament. This year it will feature access to one of the premier golf courses in the upstate, The Cliffs at Keowee Falls.
There will be a round of Golf and a Pre- Golf meal at the Cliffs Clubhouse, for $225 per person. This will include a donation to the Alpha Greenville Foundation.
