Events
- Maranatha Memorial Golf Classic
Begins Monday September 13th, 2010.
September is right around the corner and so is the Maranatha Memorial Golf Classic. Teams of 4 each raise at least $500 and golf on September 13 to raise money for Maranatha's scholarship fund. This fund enables us to let every kid who wants to come to camp be here. This is important in that there are so many single parent families who just can't afford to send their children to camp as well as two parent families who are also struggling. We want every child to be able to attend. Won't you help us by spreading the word to the kind hearted golfers you know or supporting the efforts of one of the teams playing. Please see our website for more information (look under donations).
