The Citrus Heights Police Activities League will host its first golf tournament in October. The golf tournament will take place on Friday, Oct. 11 at Woodcreek Golf Club in Roseville. Registration will begin at 6:45 a.m. and the first t-off will begin at 8 a.m.

“This marks a significant milestone for us, as we have previously organized successful fundraising events such as cornhole tournaments and banquets,” Commander Kris Frey with the Citrus Heights Police Department said Thursday.

The fundraising event will include breakfast, practice time, 18 holes of golf with a cart for transport and on-course snacks and drinks, plus a post banquet and awards ceremony. Frey said the primary goal of the event is to raise funds for the Police Activities League so it can continue its work in “building relationships and inspiring the youth in our community.”

According to the event’s Facebook page, the fundraising event is hosted by the Charity Golf Guys, a nonprofit which specializes in hosting charity golf tournaments for multiple organizations. For more information or to register, visit the event page here.
