Resort in Angels Camp, Calif., will have the event on its Robert Trent Jones, Jr. redesigned course on October 10th.
Greenhorn Creek Resort in Angels Camp, Calif., 130 miles east of San Francisco, will host the fifth annual ReHorse Rescue Charity Golf Tournament on October 10th in support of the rehabilitation of rescue horses.
The tournament, open to the public, will be played on the Robert Trent Jones, Jr. redesigned course in the Sierra Foothills. Rescue ReHorse Ranch is a gold-country non-profit where Raquelle Van Vleck, the founder, has dedicated herself to providing a temporary or permanent loving and healthy environment for abandoned, neglected and abused horses.
Under the nurturing of Van Vleck’s team, the animals are provided veterinary care and nutrition until they are ready for adoption. The ranch also maintains a program for children who have suffered abuse and another for veterans suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), who can heal mentally and physically while working with the animals.
“We have both loved and owned horses all our lives,” says Phyllis Grupe, whose husband, Fritz, developed Greenhorn Creek Resort in the mid-1990s. “These animals deserve to be cared for with dignity and love, and we commend Rehorse Rescue, its staff and volunteers for its devoted service to horses.”
The shotgun tournament will commence on October 10th at 1:00 p.m. with a scramble format, followed by an awards banquet at 6:00 p.m. The entry fee is $110 per player or $400 per foursome (includes cart, range, tee prize, snack bag, dinner plus a $10,000 hole-in-one prize). Dinner only is $50.
