For the 19th year, South Florida Baptist Hospital teamed up with the Plant City Kiwanis Club and the Greater Plant City Chamber of Commerce for the Children’s Classic Golf Tournament Friday at Walden Lake Golf and Country Club.
The best-ball tournament took place on the Lake and Hills courses at Walden Lake, and also included a putting and chipping contest. Also, for the first year, a golf cart was raffled off.
According to tournament chair Jodi Stevens, 200 golfers signed up this year. Money raised from the tournament will be split among the three organizations, but will all benefit local youth in some way.
“It all goes back to the kids,” Stevens said.
Fred’s Kitchen provided a lunch for golfers and the hospital sponsored a steak dinner by poolside after the tournament.
