Enterprise, Ala.(WDNews) – The 3rd annual Enterprise Fire Department golf tournament was a hit, raising nearly $7,500 during the one-day event.
“We are overwhelmed by the success of this year’s tournament and the support from our community to help raise money for our community risk reduction efforts,” Fire Chief Christopher Davis said. “The funds raised will go right back into Enterprise to help with fire prevention safety and education.”
More than 20 teams participated in the golf tournament held at The Bridges at Tartan Pines on July 20. Morgan Casey, Colton Yarbrough, Freddy Batenburg, and Robert Brooks took home first place. Money was raised through tournament play, sponsorships, games, and raffle prizes.
“From gift certificates to gift baskets, merchandise, and items created specifically to reflect the fire department and our cause, the Enterprise community really stepped up to donate and support the cause. I can’t say enough about how generous these local businesses have been, which contributed to the success of our event,” Davis said. “I also want to thank the players, volunteers, and city staff who pitched in to help. It truly was a team effort that will certainly benefit our entire city.”
The Enterprise Fire Department’s goal is for every home within city limits to have a working smoke alarm. Those in need should contact Central Fire Station to request free smoke alarms and installation, if needed. For more information, call (334) 348-2641.
