Golf Classic Helps Keep Central Florida Youth on the Right Course

The Demetree Golf Classic brought 70 golfers together to show support for Boys Town Central Florida, and raised more than $9,000 for the organization’s programs.

The Holland Pools 9th Annual Demetree Golf Classic April 17 put community members on par to help children and families served by Boys Town Central Florida.

“Year after year, this tournament has proven to be a fun way to gather Boys Town Central Florida supporters,” said Greg Zbylut, Boys Town Central Florida Executive Director. “The golfers may enjoy the competition, but the real winners are the additional children and families who will benefit from our programs.”

Seventy golfers played to raise more than $9,000 to help Boys Town Central Florida continue to spread hope and healing to at-risk youth in the area. Treated to lunch by Firehouse Subs, dinner at the Timacuan Golf Course’s Club House, auctions and raffles, the golfers had a great time while learning about the Boys Town mission.

The annual tournament is sponsored by Mike and Gloria Holland of Holland Pools and Spas. 

“We are grateful to everyone who helped with this wonderful event,” said Zbylut. “The community’s continual support through the Demetree Classic and enthusiasm for our mission is truly inspiring.”
