FAIRHOPE,Ala.—The Fairhope Lions Club Golf Tournament to help fight blindness and diabetes is set for Oct. 6 at Quail Creek. The Sunday afternoon event kicks off at noon with a great lunch provided followed by a silent auction and awards.

Sponsorships and contributions range from door prizes to $5,000 and are tax deductible. Terry Thompson is donating a 2014 Equinox for “Hole-in-One” grand prize. A putting contest, vacations, door prizes and other silent auction items will be available. Greer’s Food Tiger and the SSI Group have also been recognized for their generous donations to the Fairhope Lions this year.

Money raised will continue to help those in need and send several children to camp for diabetic training. The Fairhope Lions Club also contributes to the Alabama Reading Program for the Blind and other local charities. Since 1963 the club has served the Eastern Shore communities of Daphne, Montrose, Spanish Fort and Fairhope.
