Annual North Dallas Chamber of Commerce Golf Classic
By Grace on Aug 15, 2008 in Dallas County
The 26th annual North Dallas Chamber of Commerce (NDCC) Golf Classic is to be held on October 13, 2008 at the Prestenwood Country Club.
This popular event, in addition to providing a fun outing for golfers and a chance to win valuable prizes, gives back to the Dallas communities which are home to the more than 1,500 business members of the North Dallas Chamber of Commerce.
Giving Back to the Communities of Dallas
The money raised will benefit the Dallas Police Department and the Dallas Parks and Recreation Department.
Proceeds from the Golf Classic will also fund a locally based crime prevention institute for Dallas, Highland Park and University Park offices, as well as fund the Carole Young Law Enforcement Scholarship at the Southwestern Law Enforcement Institute at the University of Texas at Dallas.
A portion of those funds will go towards a North Dallas police substation, which includes the refurbishment of the Dallas Police Department Mobile Storefront, and a computer-based Spanish language program for police officers.
Additional proceeds from the Golf Classic will go toward improvements to the athletic fields which are used by the North Dallas Chamber of Commerce youth soccer and baseball leagues.
