NICEVILLE — The Emerald Coast Association of Realtors' May 30 golf tournament at Eglin Golf Course will benefit Emerald Coast Toys for Tots.
Registration will begin at 10 a.m., followed by lunch and a silent auction at 11 a.m. and a 12:30 p.m. shotgun start. The golf course is located at 1527 Fairway Drive in Niceville.
“We have a big need for toys, and with that comes a big need for monetary donations, which is why fundraisers such as our upcoming golf tournament are so important to the Emerald Coast Toys for Totsmission,” said Ashley Botelho, ECAR's Toys for Tots Task Force chair.
During the 2014 holiday season, Toys for Tots provided 16,906 toys to 10,204 Okaloosa and Walton County children. This was an average of 1.66 toys per child, just below the organization’s two-toys-per-child goal.
