Coquese's Drive for the Women's Resource Center Brochure
UNIVERSITY PARK, PA. - Lady Lion head coach Coquese Washington announced today the formation of Coquese Washington's Drive for the Women's Resource Center golf tournament. The inaugural tournament will be held at the Penn State Blue Course on Friday, August 15 with a 1 p.m. shotgun start. All proceeds from the event will be donated to the Centre County Women's Resource Center.
"I am looking forward to the Drive for the Women's Resource Center golf tournament and hopefully this inaugural tournament will bring additional awareness to the outstanding services this organization provides Centre County," Washington said. "This is a cause that is very close to my heart because of what the Women's Resource Center does for women and families in need. With recent budget cuts, it is now more important that our community step up and give them our support."
The golf tournament will feature an 11 a.m. registration and lunch, followed by a 1 p.m. shotgun start with a closing dinner following the round of golf.
A foursome for the Drive for the Women's Resource Center is $500 and includes meal tickets to lunch and dinner. An individual golfer can participate for $100. There is also an opportunity to give to the Women's Resource as a tee or green sponsor for $100 or by attending the post-event dinner at $15 for an individual and $25 for couples.
