Southside Boxing Club Golf Outing Saturday At Bedford Trails
Bedford Trails in Coitsville will be the setting this Saturday for the Second Annual Southside Boxing Club Golf Scramble. The event kicks off at 1:30 and there are still a couple of openings for teams.
The scramble format competition, created by gym owner Jack Loew, covers fees for the Southside Boxing Club to take fighters to national tournaments. This year, Loew will escort Popo Salinas to the Ringside World Amateur Tournament, and entrance fees, travel costs, and lodging are not free, so part of the proceeds will cover some of those expenses.
“I pay my bills, it’s no secret that I do a lot of blacktop work and pay the bills”, said Loew. “People should know where the money goes for this event, and it is a great thing for kids like Popo, giving them a chance to fight the best in the world. This kind of fund raiser allows the trip to happen.”
The cost to play in the outing is $85 per player based on a four-person team, or $320 per team. The fee includes food on the turn and a great meal at the end of the scramble. Also included are 18 holes and a riding cart and refreshments to be carted around by some friends of the cause.
