Who's best, ACC or SEC? Let's settle it on the course!
October 13, 2008 | Hermitage Golf Course
CASA of Davidson County is thrilled and honored to partner with local ACC and SEC Alumni Clubs for this year's alumni golf tournament, scheduled for Monday, October 13, 2008 (Columbus Day) at the Hermitage Golf Course.
The tournament is a friendly competition between Nashville area ACC and SEC alumni for bragging rights, prizes, and scholarship money, as well as a fundraiser to benefit CASA of Davidson County [Court Appointed Special Advocates for children], an organization dedicated to providing volunteer advocates for children who have come to the attention of the court primarily due to abuse and neglect.
Rivalry-fueled pranks make for a fun atmosphere! Lunch will be served prior to the early afternoon shotgun start. Team awards and individual prizes will be handed out immediately following the event. At the end of the day, the winning team and conference earns a year's worth of bragging rights, and about the impact they made in helping at-risk children in Middle Tennessee.
C'mon, Hoos! We need a strong team to make a great showing for UVa! Entry fee is $125 per golfer or $500 per foursome. Each school's alumni group will coordinate its foursomes, and each will be responsible for notifying the foursomes of their pairings. Note: It is not necessary to be an alumnus/a to be eligible to play for a school. Being a supportive fan is the only qualification!
Each of the 24 ACC and SEC Alumni Clubs in Middle TN has a goal of supplying two foursomes for the tournament. Until August 2nd, the Alumni clubs' presidents and/or representatives on the NASLC will control foursome selection. After August 2nd, depending upon participation, if more foursomes are needed clubs may be able to add more than two teams. The goal is to have an equal number of teams playing for each conference.
If you're interested in playing, full information is available online at the tournament website. There is also complete contact information, if you have a question or would like to get in touch with the tournament coordinators; or you can contact our own Anne Taylor for further assistance.
C'mon, Hoos! Let's show 'em Virginia rules!
Please tell us how to make your Virginia Club even better!
Did you know there are over 800 UVa alums right here in Middle Tennessee? Unfortunately, only a small percentage of you are actively involved in the activities of the Club -- and we'd like to know what we could do to make the Club more accessible, relevant, and valuable to you.
Please take a moment to complete our very brief and easy online survey to share your thoughts and maybe offer a suggestion or two; also, please take a moment to update your current contact information for us at Hoos Online.
We are working hard to make your Club one of the finest UVa Alumni Clubs in the nation, so please take a brief moment to let us know what you think...and thanks!
Volunteer Opportunity: The Club's Schools Committee Needs Your Help!
We are looking for volunteers to serve on our Schools Committee! Schools Committees serve their local communities and the Office of Admission and the Office of Engagement at U.Va. by:
- Attending and/or recruiting volunteers for local high school college fairs;
- Serving as and/or recruiting volunteers for panels at admissions information sessions;
- Organizing congratulatory phone calls to admitted students;
- Coordinating the Accepted Students Party for newly admitted students;
- Coordinating student send-off events for admitted and returning students from the region;
- Overseeing the selection and presentation of the Jefferson Book Award.
This is a rewarding experience and a unique way to connect with the University. Please contact Anne Taylor if you are interested or have questions about this exciting volunteer opportunity!
