Annual Golf Classic to Benefit Aroostook ‘House of Comfort’

The Aroostook 'House of Comfort' will host its 4th Annual charity Golf Classic on Saturday, June 18, 2016, at the Presque Isle Country Club.

Proceeds will go towards the construction of a palliative and hospice care home. Last June the Board of Directors began the final leg of this journey by purchasing the existing MBNA property at 18 Green Hill Drive in Presque Isle. It will be modified, added to and converted to become the beautiful new 'House of Comfort'.

The June 18 event is a four-person scramble and kicks off with a shotgun start at 9 a.m. Registration and check-in is 7:30 to 8:30 a.m.. An awards and recognition ceremony will be held at the Club's restaurant at the 19th hole immediately following the tournament. Formerly the Logan P. Graves Golf Tournament, this year's Golf Classic challenge is partially underwritten by platinum sponsor, Whited-Peterbuilt.

This years' tournament will include a tournament raffle and many door prizes. There are several items donated of significant value, which will be raffled off in the clubhouse after the tournament during the awards presentation. Visit the Aroostook 'House of Comfort' website and friend the organization on Facebook to find out more information.

Prizes will be awarded for longest drive and closest to the pin for both men and women. A $10,000 prize, sponsored by North State Transportation, LLC, will be awarded for a Hole-in-One.
