McDonald’s Saipan offered a cash award of $5,000 as a hole-in-one prize at the 22nd Annual Tournament of Champions set last May 27 and 28, at the Laolao bay Golf & Resort.
“We are extremely happy to support the Governor’s Tournament of Champions, which has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for important beautification projects in the CNMI,” said Joe Ayuyu Jr., general manager of McDonald’s Saipan. “We look forward to this weekend’s tournament and wish all the players luck!”
“McDonald’s Saipan’s $5,000 hole-in-one contribution helps us build even more excitement for this year’s tournament,” said Ben Babauta, tournament director.
The two-day event was bigger and better with exciting hole-in-one prizes and the chance to win thousands of dollars in possible prizes.
There were hundreds of thousands worth of prizes that were at stake in the two-day tournament, including hole-in-one prizes that included a brand new 2017 Honda Civic hatchback donated by Joeten Motors, a brand new 2017 Hyundai Grand Santa Fe donated by Triple J Motors, a brand new 2017 Limited Edition 50th Anniversary Toyota Corolla donated by Atkins Kroll Toyota, a $10,000 hole-in-one prize offered by Pacifica Insurance, and one year of free golf donated by Saipan Laolao Bay Golf & Resort.
Since its inception, TOC has turned over more than $800,000 to the Saipan Beautification Fund, which has gone directly to improvements like the tree-lined traffic medians that stretch from Garapan to Kensington as well as the revitalization of the Garapan special district. In addition, the Governor’s TOC also contributed funds for the Paseo de Marianas, the lighting of the Saipan Beach Pathway, and the beautification of the Port to Park pathway. (PR)
