Friends of the family of Jimmy Riley, a longtime Plant City firefighter and paramedic battling brain cancer, are banding together to host a golf tournament to raise money for the family.
The Riley Strong Golf Tournament is scheduled for a 1 p.m. shotgun start on March 27 at Summerfield Crossings Golf Course, 13050 Summerfield Blvd., Riverview. This all-ages four-man scramble tournament will also feature awards, on-course contests for hitting shots closest to the pin or the line, team prizes, individual prize drawings, a silent auction, raffles, vendors and food trucks, kid-friendly activities and more. Raffle tickets cost $5 for two, $10 for five and $20 for a line of tickets the length of a fire axe. Attendees are required to maintain six feet of social distancing and wear a face mask.
The cost to play is $125 per individual or $400 for a team of four. Sponsorship opportunities are also available in a variety of packages ranging from $100 to $1,500. The deadline to register is March 19.
