Last Page Update - June 22, 2003

The following is a list of Habitat related dates and activities
that you might want to put on your calendar.

ANNUAL GOLF TOURNAMENT ... July 25, 2003
HFHAC will be hosting the 4th annual golf event at Mays Landing Golf Club on Friday, July 25, 2003 with a 1:00 PM registration and a 2:00 PM shotgun scramble. We are still seeking sponsors. Sponsorships are available on three levels: Eagle ($1,000), Birdie ($500) and Par ($250). The cost for golfers is $100 and includes a round of golf, cart and fees, hot dogs and soda at registration with a bogey barbecue after golf during the awards presentation. And did I mention that each golfer will receive a great gift bag including a golf shirt? We will have plenty of door prizes and raffle items as well, so join us for an afternoon of fun while supporting your local Habitat Chapter. Hole sponsors ($100) are needed as well, so show your support by advertising the name of your business, organization or family on a sign to be placed at the holes throughout the course. For information email the Habitat office at decenthomes@aol.com. Proceeds will be used toward the purchase of land.

TraceyHouse 5K Run...August 16, 2003
Habitat for Humanity Atlantic County and Tracey House Foundation are partnering for this event to be held Saturday, August 16, 2003 on the Atlantic City Boardwalk at 8:00 AM in front of Tropicana. Registration is at 7:00 AM and Awards at 9:00 AM. Entry fees are as follows: $15-early registration (postmarked by 8/3/03), $10-early registration (students) and $20 the day of the race. All pre-registered applicants will receive a long-sleeved T-shirt. Through the generous support of sponsors and 500 participants of last year’s race, TraceyHouse Foundation presented Atlantic County Habitat with a $40,000 check at the “wall raising” of the first Habitat house in Galloway, the “Tracey House.”  Tracey Powers, a 17 year old senior at Absegami High School, died of carbon monoxide poisoning while in Ecuador in July 2001. She was the President of the Absegami Campus Chapter of Habitat and a remarkable young woman, doing ordinary things with extraordinary love! Sponsors are needed.

If you are interested in participating and meeting three Habitat families, please e-mail Habitat to be sure that you receive the exact time and directions.
