Men's Health Week: Golf Day - Kalgoorlie
by Kayla.Rameka, 9 months agoHope's Annual Men's Health Week Kalgoorlie Golf Day is back this year, for the fourth year running. The event, which is all about social connection and raising awareness around men's physical and mental health, will take place on Friday 10th September from 11am-5pm. Please see picture for further details.
No previous golf experience is required! There will be prizes for all skill levels and some awards that will have nothing to do with Golf itself (including the Best Dressed Team award).
While the focus is on "Men's" health, the event is not strictly for men, and we encourage everyone to join in.
You can register as a full team of four or as an individual/pair/threesome and be placed in a team of four on the day.
Registration numbers are limited, so please register early to avoid missing out.
While this is a free community event, there will be an opportunity to make a donation, which will go towards a local community group or service that supports Men's Mental Health in Kalgoorlie-Boulder.
