Norwood Firefighters Association 2009 Golf Outing

It’s not too late to register for this year’s NFA Golf Outing on Saturday, April 25, at Glenview Golf Course at 10965 Springfield Pike. Norwood firefighter Ben Schibi tells us registration is open until this Sunday, April 19. You can either call 458-4562 or email nfdgolfouting@hotmail.com. Cost is $80 per golfer. Hole Sponsorships, which will get your or your company’s name on a placard at hole/tee boxes, are $100. Entry fees include greens fees, cart, beverages, door prizes, dinner and drinks afterwards at the gold course, plus lots of prizes will be awarded, including for the closest to the pin and the longest drive. Four Person “Scramble” Shotgun will get underway at 1:15 p.m.

Since 1984, the Norwood Firefighters Association has contributed thousands of dollars to the Plogman and Condron Scholarship Fund, which was set up to honor the memories of Norwood firefighters Robert Plogman and James Condron who died a few years earlier in the line of duty. Thanks to many years of donor support and fundraising events like this Golf Outing, each year two Norwood High School Senior are awarded a $3,000 scholarship annually. Additionally, NFA supports Shriners Hospital Cincinnati, MDA, AmTrykes, local youth sports, animal shelters, and other deserving charities.
