Golfers are invited to participate in the 9th annual Shell Point Open Charity Golf Tournament on Friday, November 9, 2012, at the Shell Point Golf Club in Fort Myers. The tournament, presented by the Legacy Foundation, will raise funds for the Waterside Medical Complex which offers medical and healthcare services to residents of Shell Point and the surrounding local community. This complex includes the Larsen Pavilion, a 219 bed skilled nursing facility, a state-of-art rehabilitation center, and many more healthcare services.
“This tournament is just one way that we can help support a great cause while also having a lot of fun,” said Timothy Stephenson, executive director of the Legacy Foundation. “For our 9th year, we are offering a new twist on the game by playing a step-aside scramble. I think everyone will really enjoy it!”
