Majestic Springs Golf Courses recent Ribbon Round the Pin event raised more than $1,000 for the CMH Foundation to be utilized in the battle against breast cancer by patients of CMH Regional Health System.
The funds will assist uninsured and underinsured patients needing financial assistance in order to have screening mammograms in Radiology Services at Clinton Memorial Hospital. Course general manager BJ Joyce presented the cash to Scott Holmer, treasurer of the CMH Foundation Board of Trustees, the fundraising board for CMH.
Also on hand were Barbara Multon, Linda Gledhill and Carl Coatney. Coatney and Multon collaborated on the idea. Coatney, the athletic equipment manager at Wilmington College, works summers at Majestic Springs. Multon volunteers for CMH at the Foster J. Boyd, MD, Regional Cancer Center and is the Clinton County Unit of the American Cancer Society Breast Cancer Mission Chair. She also is a member of the CMH Foundation Auxiliary, which coordinates special fundraising events for the CMH Foundation that benefits CMH. Gledhill is the oncology program administrator at the Foster J. Boyd, MD, Regional Cancer Center, an affiliate of CMH.
During the last weekend in June, Majestic Springs golfers playing the par 3 No. 7 hole had the opportunity to wager between $1 and $5 that they could hit their tee shot into a circle painted around the flagstick. Those whose shots landed in the circle doubled their money while others forfeited their bet as a donation to the cancer center. Majestic Springs management also donated $1 for each golfer who played that weekend.
Majestic Springs volunteers who also helped at the hole were Brent Coatney, Chris Graff, Brooke Irwin, Rich Hurley, Katherine McKenzie, Brooke Sargent and Jack Gasaway.
The CMH Foundation appreciates and encourages area businesses, colleges, schools and community service groups to raise money or provide gifts in kinds to support for patients of Clinton Memorial Hospital and other CMH Regional Health System services.
All monies contributed to the CMH Foundation stay in Clinton County for community benefit to support healthcare programs and services offered locally as well as those CMH patients who truly need financial assistance with health care and related expenses. Donations are tax deductible and will be credited and acknowledged by the CMH Foundation.
The CMH Foundation has $1.5 million in restricted fund assets, an unrestricted endowment of $1.7 million and a restricted endowment of $1 million.
