More than 125 golfers teed off at the Rotary Club of Morgan Hill’s annual golf tournament at Eagle Ridge Golf Club Aug. 22, raising more than $34,000, the largest amount ever.
Event financial success is dependent on sponsors and this year’s golf tournament was supported by Ladera Grill, Johnson Lumber/ACE Hardware and RNP Financial. Other sponsors included Pinnacle Bank and Rosy’s at the Beach and Morgan Hill Life. Funds raised go toward funding projects that support youth enrichment and leadership Some of these projects include:
• College scholarships for Morgan Hill students
