Rancho
Santa Margarita, CA – You got that right! Play golf, cure cancer.
Not rocket science, not a medical breakthrough, simply common
sense. You see, The Dove Canyon Country
Club will be hosting a Rally for the Cure® Golf
Tournament Event August 6th, 2012. Or
as Dove Canyon Country Club
Event Sales Manager, Jennifer Wolf might put it: “We are proud to open our
facility and host a Rally for the Cure event. The event is a fun way for us to
bring together our members and the community to support an important cause
while playing a sport they are passionate about,”
The mission of Rally for the Cure is to empower people to take action in the
fight against breast cancer by providing a platform for them to educate their
family, friends and community on the importance of early detection through an
activity they are passionate about.
A grass roots
program, Rally for the Cure works to
increase breast self-awareness and mammography screening rates to ensure the
early detection of breast cancer through volunteer organized golf, tennis and
social events. More than 2 million people have participated in Rally events
across the nation since its inception in 1996.
This year marks the Third
year Dove Canyon Country Club has rallied against breast cancer. The Club already as has 30 participants registered for the Rally
event and invites the public to take part, play golf and help cure cancer. Those registering prior to July 31, 2012
will get $25.00 off/
The day’s activities will include contests
such as closest to the pin & longest drive as well as a BBQ lunch at the
turn and an Italian Style dinner following the tournament. Prizes will be
awarded to the winner of the event and each participant will receive a goody
bag with important breast health information and other Rally items plus a
subscription to a select Condé Nast magazine such as SELF, Golf Digest and Bon
Appétit.
Since 1996 Komen has received over $65 million
from fundraising activities at Rally
events to help fund life-saving breast cancer research, education, screening
and treatment programs. Rally for the
Cure® is based in Wilton, Connecticut. For further
