St. John Bosco Mission to Host Annual Benefit Golf Tournament

A golf tournament fundraiser will be held July 18 at the Yucaipa Valley Golf Club, 33725 Chapman Heights Road in Yucaipa. This has been a yearly event planned by the St. John Bosco golf committee and serves as one of two major church fundraisers. Monies will be used toward a new and required sacristy. “It is a work in progress," said Henrietta Chavez, who is a descendant of the original and small community where the historic mission is located. She explained that when the small riverrock stone church was built before 1941, it did not include a sacristy. Years later, friends of the community added the small room; it was later learned that the foundation needs re-enforcement, so a new sacristy will be constructed. The day’s event will begin at the golf site and includes hole-in-one sponsored by Redlands Ford, longest accurate drive, and putting contest. At day’s end, all golf participants will return to the mission, located at 28991 Merris Street, Highland, for a dinner, tee prizes, trophies to the winning teams, and a silent auction. Many of the golfers’ family members and the parishioners also attend the dinner and join in on the remaining day’s activities, which is also open to the general public. Golf Tournament Chair David Chavez Jr. shared, “This is an event that is attended by participants as far away as San Francisco and Arizona, due to their ongoing interest and ties with the community and the church." There is still time for individual or team sign-ups on Sunday, July 12, 11 a.m., at a taco & enchilada brunch to be held at the Mission’s hall. The golf committee will also be available to answer any questions or call Henrietta Chavez at 909/862-5680.
