Sign up now for Murr golf

The 22nd-annual Paul Murr Memorial Golf Tournament will take place Monday, May 8 at Acton's Blue Springs course and organizers hope to surpass last year's best-ever fundraising total. A $50,000 donation was made to the Acton branch of the Canadian Cancer Society after the 2005 event, bringing the 21-year total raised by the tournament to $543,000. There are three different tournament packages to choose from for this year's tourney, which is expected to draw approximately 260 participants. The morning package ($150) is a 7 a.m. shotgun scramble that includes 18 holes with power cart usage on the prestigious Turtle Lake championship course, lunch, driving range use, complimentary afternoon play on the par-3 Trillium course, a buffet steak dinner and prizes. The 1 p.m. afternoon shotgun scramble ($175) includes 18 holes of Turtle Lake golf with power cart and driving range privileges, a buffet steak dinner and prize draws. For the less-avid players, the Trillium package ($100) from 1-4 p.m. consists of nine holes on the par3 Trillium course, driving range usage, buffet steak dinner and prize draws. Personal in-memoriams can also be made at the gold ($500) or silver ($160) levels. For more info call John McNabb at 519-853-5615.
