Dallas, TX -- (SBWire) -- 07/26/2010 -- The third annual KidSwing-McKinney golf tournament benefiting TSRHC is a nine-hole, best-ball scramble for children ages 7 to 18. The tournament will include lunch, an awards program and pool party. There is no entry fee to play in the tournament, but children who enter are encouraged to raise $100 for the hospital by asking their family and friends to sponsor them.
KidSwing was founded in 2003 by former TSRHC patient Ben Sater, at age 11, to give back to the hospital for the care he received. Now 18-years-old and his last year to play in KidSwing, Ben has set a goal to raise $1 million before he goes off to college in the fall. To date, the KidSwing Golf Tournaments have raised more than $930,000. For more information, please visit http://www.KidSwing.org.
