Join Us for a Day of Golf for a Lifetime Cure

Horizons in Hemophilia, October 2015

By Kirstin Downie

Support research to find a cure for hemophilia that is safe, effective, and widely available by joining the Atlanta Braves, sports celebrities and more than 200 golfers on Tuesday, October 27 at the Manor Golf & Country Club and Atlanta National Golf Club in Milton, GA. The 2015 Hit ’Em for Hemophilia Golf Tournament, a premier charity golf event, will begin at 8:30 a.m. with a shotgun start planned for 10:30 a.m., and an awards reception immediately following the tournament.

Silver-level sponsors and above at the Manor Golf & Country Club will have their teams matched with an Atlanta Braves celebrity. Teams playing at Atlanta National Golf Club will participate in a putting contest against Bobby Cox on the 18th hole. This is an event not to miss! Register now: https://goo.gl/b64UIM.

Immediately following the tournament, prizes from Mizuno and Brown & Co. Jewelers will be awarded to the 1st and 2nd place team from each course, to the closest to the pin and to the longest drive winners from each course. Will October 27th be your lucky day? A perfect shot on a selected hole at either course will win you a beautiful, brand-new SUV from Hardy Chevrolet. Purchase a $100 raffle package and you could go home with two coach domestic travel vouchers on Delta, a $500 gift certificate from Brown & Co. Jewelers or other great prizes. The reception features silent and live auctions with exclusive Atlanta Braves memorabilia and specialty sports, music, art, jewelry, and travel auction items.
