A Round to Remember Alzheimer’s Golf Tournament Set for June 11th


“A Round to Remember Alzheimer’s,” a golf tournament hosted by The Homemakers Health Services, will be held June 11th at The Oaks Golf Links in Somersworth.

Sponsored by Eastern Propane and Oil, all proceeds of the tournament will go toward providing home health, home support, education and respite care for families that are impacted by Alzheimer’s disease or related dementias.

“Today, it seems that nearly everyone is touched in some way by Alzheimer’s disease. Either you know someone who is suffering from this devastating disease itself or you know their caregiver or loved ones,” says René Philpott, community relations director at The Homemakers. So many families are overwhelmed by this devastating disease and they need our support. There’s several ways you can help - you can register to play in the tournament, become a sponsor or make a gift of a raffle prize.”

Registration is $125 for golfers, which includes 18 holes with a cart, breakfast and lunch and the opportunity to win plenty of prizes including a large screen TV donated by WOKQ. If you golf or know someone who would like to play, donate a raffle prize or sponsor the tournament contact René Philpott at 335-1770, ext. 103 or rphilpott@thehomemakers.org. More information about the tournament can also be found at www.TheHomemakers.org
