Golf Tournament

The HGCS AAA Booster Club is excited to announce that the 20th Annual Golf Tournament will be held at Pine Lake Country Club on April 29, 2019. Over the years, our golf tournament has proven to be a great success and has contributed to many enhancements to the school’s programs. Recently, we were able to provide funding for improvements to the school’s softball field which included a new press box, concrete sidewalks, and additional bleachers. This was only possible through the contributions of our generous sponsors.

This year, our tournament goal is to raise $35,000 which will provide funding to establish a STEM lab for the school. The STEM lab is being designed to include Vex Robotics, 3D printers, model design, and building materials as well as movable furniture to allow flexible room arrangements. In order to meet this goal, we look forward to working with our participants and sponsors to make this milestone golf tournament a success!
