The Newton-Wellesley Hospital Charitable Foundation has announced that its annual Golf & Tennis Tournament will be held on Monday, September 21, 2015 at the Wellesley Country Club (WCC) in Wellesley, Mass. Last year’s event yielded 128 golfers, 16 tennis players and raised $185,000. The goal for this year is to raise $200,000.

Funds raised from the Golf & Tennis Tournament will support The NWH Fund, which is used to help Newton-Wellesley Hospital meet its most pressing operating budget needs. These unrestricted funds are critically important and help the Hospital implement the latest medical advances, purchase state-of-the-art equipment and technology and provide ongoing clinical education.

The full schedule of events includes a buffet lunch, a cocktail buffet and awards. Golf registration begins at 10:30 AM, the buffet lunch is at 11:00 AM and the shotgun start, in a scramble format, is at 12:00PM.
