WAKEFIELD — Save the date. … The Scholarship Foundation (TSF) of Wakefield has announced that it will hold its annual Golf Tournament on Monday, Sept. 21 at Bear Hill Golf Club in Stoneham. The tournament will feature numerous prizes and a noontime shotgun start that will be limited to 64 players, male or female. Each golfer will play his/her own ball and the Callaway system will determine the top three net prize winners. Prizes will also be awarded to the top three low gross scores. Other prizes will include the longest drive on the 12th hole, closest to the line on the 10th hole and closest to the pin on the four par three holes. The top prize will be $500 for the first hole-in-one on the seventh hole. Enjoy a beautiful afternoon of golf followed by a delicious dinner buffet, prizes and a raffle all while supporting a great cause.

Tournament sponsor are the Wakefield Co-operative Bank, the Wakefield Daily Item and Boston Private. TSF of Wakefield is very grateful for their continued support.

The cost for 18 holes of golf with a cart, a sleeve of golf balls and dinner is still only $100 per person (if paid before Sept. 14; $125 per person if paid after Sept. 14). This is a great opportunity to play a private course that is in excellent condition. You can make your own foursome or you can be placed in one. If you cannot play, please consider sponsoring a tee or donating a raffle prize.
