The First Thousand...A Golf Marathon To Fight Cancer

Here are some snippets from the first Thousand dollars raised to fight cancer in June in my 100-hole golf marathon…

…I know that 100 holes isn’t a lot…they do 10 rounds in a day in the Golf Styles (formerly Washington Golf Monthly) fundraisers. For me, it’s a start.

…Thanks to two fellow TravelGolf/WorldGolf bloggers for contributing some of their hard-earned cash. Ditto to the people at BuffaloGolfer.Com (oh, that’s me) and the public from the Buffalo-Niagara golf show who entered the raffles.

…Are there any TravelGolf.Com blog viewers who have a spare $5 laying around? Donations come in all shapes and sizes, and all are welcome. I’ve felt sheepish before (initially) about giving a small amount, but the gratitude from the fund raiser erases all preconceived worries.

…They expect me to raise $5000? I’m a freaking teacher!! What am I going to do, stop the kids in the hall and tell them they can’t pass unless they pony up?
