The Pink Ribbon Golf Tournament returns November 14, proudly sponsored by Lake Ashton Golf Management, with 100% of funds raised donated to the Breast Cancer Foundation of Central Florida (BCFCF). This 501(c)(3) organization helps ease the financial burden for local breast cancer patients and their families by providing assistance with essential non-medical expenses, including housing, utilities, transportation, gasoline and childcare.

Last year, our amazing community raised more than $65,000 through sponsors, donations, silent auctions and tournament registrations. This year’s goal is to meet or exceed that incredible total! Every dollar raised helps make a meaningful difference for families right here in Central Florida. The four-person scramble costs $45 for members and $75 for non-members and includes a continental breakfast, a round of golf, lunch generously provided by Glory Days and a donation to BCFCF.
