ENID, OK - The deadline for the 30th Annual United Way Golf Tournament and Ronna Richards Memorial Fundraiser is set for June 26th. Participants at this year’s United Way Golf Tournament, sponsored by Richardson Homes, will have a chance to win great prizes, show off their skill, have fun and support programs that make a difference in our community.
-
The tournament, slated for Monday, July 10th, at Oakwood Country Club & Golf Course, is limited to the first 192 golfers. According to Dana & Barry McDaniel, Golf Committee Co-Chairs for the United Way of Enid & Northwest Oklahoma, “the tournament has been at capacity for many years, so we decided to add an additional tee off time. Teams are accommodated on a first-come, first-serve basis, so we encourage golfers to get their signup forms in as soon as possible.”

This is the fourth year participants have had the opportunity to contribute to the Ronna Richards Memorial Fund, with proceeds benefitting community health and education initiatives. Participants can donate during the registration process and during the day of the tournament.

“This is the fourth time in eighteen years Ronna has not been part of our annual tournament. Her passion for United Way and love of this tournament is felt by all who knew her,” Dan Schiedel, CEO of United Way of Enid and NW Oklahoma said.

“We have an incredibly generous community”, said Schiedel. “I don’t think people play in our tournament because of the prizes; they play because it’s an enjoyable day and they know they are helping to make a tremendous impact in our community through health, education, and income initiatives that make a positive difference in hundreds of lives.”

“Last year, our United Way partner agencies reported performing more than 1.5 MILLION units of service to those most in need. This equates to 3 acts of service being performed every minute of every day throughout the entire year! Every person who contributes can take pride in knowing their United Way dollars are continually at work,” stated Schiedel.
