The Annual Fort Mason Golf Association Fundraiser will be held Saturday, August 24th @ the Ft. Mason Community Building. The golf course is “member owned”, so this fundraiser is very important financially for daily operations.
The day will begin with a 9 hole scramble @ 2:00 pm (call clubhouse by noon to enter as individual or team), followed by a silent auction beginning @ 5:00, dinner @ 6:00 (catered by Boondocks) followed by a live auction and drawing.
