2014 Golf Event Date

Greetings to all fellow LM Soccer Alumni scattered all around the country, and those living abroad. Pre-season practice starts this coming Monday. Welcome back.
We have scheduled the date for our Annual Steve Fountain Memorial Golf Tournament, to be held on Friday, October 24th at the Edgmont Golf Club in Edgmont, PA. We’re proud to say that this is the 10th anniversary of this event and it promises to be a great time for everyone involved.
Steve Fountain, class of ’89, was a 3-year varsity soccer player for LM. He died of cancer in his early 30’s, leaving a wife and two daughters, ages 4 & 2. Two of his teammates, Brian Vernick & Jim VanDusen, started an Education Fund for his daughters in his name and thus the Steve Fountain Memorial Golf Tournament was born.
Sponsored by the LMSAA (Lower Merion Soccer Alumni Association), this event, in its first 9 years, has helped raise over $80,000 for the  Fountain Education Fund, a trust set up for his daughter’s education.
We would like to take this time to thank all of you who have helped our cause in the past in any of the following capacities;
1/ Playing in the golf event
2/ Finding a sponsor, or being a sponsor, for the golf event; either as a            
            A/ Presenting Sponsor
            B/ Platinum Sponsor
            C/ Gold Sponsor
            D/ or a Hole Sponsor
3/ Providing prizes for the golf event
4/ Making donations to the LMSAA

We are sending this initial letter in hopes that all of you who have supported this cause in the past will be able to do so again this year.  We will be sending out more info on this event shortly, as well as posting it on our LM Soccer Alumni website at www.lmsocceralum.org and putting it up on “Coach D’s” blog at www.coachdssoccerblog.blogspot.com

Thank you all for your continued support.
