CANTON -- Cerebral Palsy Association of the North Country will host its 19th Annual Polar Bear Golf Tournament March 3.

This fundraising event is located at the Best Western University Inn / St. Lawrence University Golf Course in Canton, and features 9 holes of golf in the snow, warm refreshments throughout the day, prize raffles, and other outdoor activities. There will be a casual dinner and a short trivia quiz at the end of the night.

All proceeds from this event go toward CP of the North Country’s Outdoor Recreation Program, which provides individuals with disabilities opportunities to enjoy outdoor activities like hiking, snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, canoeing, kayaking, horseback riding, and more.

This event is open to the public. Sponsorship opportunities are still available for those interested. If you are a business that does not wish to sponsor but would like to contribute in some way, form a team and come play.

Participants can play golf for $25, have dinner at 5 p.m. for $25, or do both for $40. Tee times for golf begin at 10 a.m. and run in 10 minute increments until 3:00 p.m. – each team has its choice of tee time (depending on availability). The format will be a 4 person scramble, but if you have less than 4 people, you are still welcome to play.

If you are interested in participating or becoming a sponsor, please contact Tammy Beaudin, Director of Fundraising, at (315) 386-1156 or tbeaudin@cpnorthcountry.org.
