'Take Friday Off' Golf Day
Friday 17th February
This not-to-be-missed event returns on February 17th to provide businesses with the opportunity to round up friends and colleagues to hit a few rounds of golf for a worthy cause.
Be served by Ponsonby's finest restaurants and bars whilst playing a fun round of golf at the beautiful Chamberlain Park Golf course, then relax at the clubhouse and enjoy live music, competitions and live auctions.
Last year's Take Friday Off event was a great success, raising $17000 to help Mercy Hospice care for 948 patients and their families in 2011. Once again Richard White and Chris Dunn from Harcourts Ponsonby have generously organised the event, inspired by the help Chris' father and mother-in-law received from Mercy Hospice in the past.
"The hospice has become a special part of the community here, and all of Auckland, so this is our way of giving something back," says Chris.
Tickets are just $50 per player and spaces are already selling out fast, so tee up your tickets by visiting http://takefridayoff.co.nz or by contacting Chris on 360 9013 or Richard on 360 9012.
