Dear Friends of The First Tee of New Hampshire,
No time since our inception in 2003 has been more exciting than the present!!
With a Board of Directors that is 100% personally and financially committed to the program, we are sure to reach new heights.
In the past year, we have far surpassed the expectations for our summer programming, reaching 400 children and adding several classes during the school year. We have introduced the First Tee Life Skill and Core Values program to over 10,000 New Hampshire children in 30 New Hampshire schools.
We are proud to announce that the LPGA Legends Tour, in partnership with Wentworth by the Sea Country Club and The First Tee of New Hampshire, will host the 2010 Handa Cup, the Legends’ version of the Solheim Cup. The Legends Tour features LPGA Hall of Famers Pat Bradley, Nancy Lopez, Beth Daniel, Patty Sheehan and more along with local Legend Jane Blalock.
This annual event, played for the first time in New England, brings 12 U.S. and 12 International Legends of the LPGA together to compete for the Handa Cup in a match play format.
The First Tee of New Hampshire has been selected to be the charity of choice for the tournament. As such, we will receive 100% of the gate receipts as well as a commission on all sponsorships we sell. This is a great opportunity for us to partner with a first class professional golf event, providing exciting new opportunities for the children of TFTNH to help to raise money for our programs.
We hope that you will join us in welcoming this great Tour event to our area and support the young men and women of TFTNH by coming out and cheering for your favorite professionals. If you are interested in supporting the event through sponsorship (available at all levels), please let me know, and I will provide you with the appropriate information.
In order to help us reach our potential, we need your help. Please support our continued growth by financially supporting the First Tee of New Hampshire.
Thank you in advance
Sincerely,
Joan Marchessault
