Rotary is seeking golfers, teams and sponsors to play golf and help local charities too. Rotary’s annual charity golf tournament returns to the beautiful Atascocita Golf Course, located at 20114 Pinehurst Dr., Atascocita, TX, after several year’s absence.

Registration opens at 7 a.m. with a shotgun start at 9 a.m. Breakfast starts at 7 a.m. and lunch will be provided after game play. Silent auction starts at 7 a.m. with raffle winners announced after lunch. Putting contest will start at 8 a.m.

Don’t miss this opportunity to network with other community and business leaders and a chance to bid on some nifty raffle prizes and gift baskets. Your participation and/or sponsorship will help to raise money for a dozen or more local charities helping to improve people’s lives in the Lake Houston area.

 

 

Last year the Lake Houston Rotary Foundation provided monetary grants totaling over $53,000 to fifteen local charities during the club’s 2024-2025 Grants and Sponsors Appreciation Luncheon held November 6th at Humble ISD’s James Eggers Instructional Support Center in Kingwood. The club hopes to raise even more money for local charities this year. Plaques of appreciation were also presented to local business representatives who supported Lake Houston Rotary’s fundraising events as major donors and/or event sponsors.

Funds raised from last year’s golf tournament and Corvette raffle were granted to the following organizations: Family Time Crisis Center, Inspire ND, Hopeful Hearts Ministry, Humble ISD Education Foundation, Society of St Stephen, Oaks of Righteousness, Family Promise of Lake Houston, re:MIND, Humble Area Assistance Ministries, Mission Northeast, WINGS Ministry, Boots for Troops, Sleep in Heavenly Peace, The Village Centers, and Lake Houston Family YMCA.

Rotary has an additional commitment to children’s education too with over a dozen student scholarships granted annually, plus mentoring students in the Junior Rotarian program. The club also supports 2-3 foreign exchange students every year. Over 50 local kids have visited other countries as part of the club’s student exchange program and an equal number of foreign students were hosted locally. 

Rotary Golf Committee Chair Daniel “Danny” Contreras said “Players and sponsors are welcome to have fun while doing good when they golf for a cause.” He added, “We couldn’t support so many local charities without the help of sponsors and players. Please join us in helping to make the Lake Houston Area a better place to work, live and play.”

Single players are $150 (we’ll match you with a group); and a Foursome team is $600. Your lunch and golf cart are included. Trophies for first, second and third place teams will be awarded. Plus, the tournament is planning some fun side activities including contests for a Hole in One and Closest to the Pin plus interesting raffle prizes, gift baskets and more!
