SAFE GRAD GOLF TOURNAMENT CLASS OF 2010
Safe Grad is an event sponsored by the Carson High PTSA on the night of graduation in June each year. Safe Grad has been a tradition in Carson City for 19 years, having started as a community response to a series of alcohol-related deaths of Carson High graduates on graduation night. I really admire this event for the fact that all seniors can attend this safe event and it doesn't cost them a penny. Some students never get to attend anything because they can't afford a student body card. This event is the best. No cost to the graduating students and an enormous amount of fun. Help by golfing in this upcoming tournament.
WHO: Safe Grad Golf Tournament
WHAT: Golf, lunch raffle and fun
WHEN: Sunday, April 18

COST: Green fees $85; pre-register before March 20 for $75 per player (green fees include cart and lunch)
