The 10th Annual Al Porta Memorial Golf Tournament is set to tee off on Sunday, September 24th.
The event, which will take place at Toiyabe Golf Course, raises money to support the Veterans Guest House.
Tom Porta started the tournament to honor his late father, Al, a decorated World War II veteran who served in the U.S. Air Force for three decades.
During his volunteer work at VA Sierra Nevada HealthCare, Al developed a deep connection with Veterans Guest House.
“My dad lived a life of service. He continued to help veterans throughout his whole life and believed in the work of Veterans Guest House,” said Tom Porta. “While he is no longer with us, his memory continues to help veterans who need us today.”
Those who wish to participate can choose from purchasing a foursome for $520 or individually at $130 per player.
Each player will receive a boxed lunch, cart, and range balls. Players can purchase mulligans and raffle tickets. Registration opens at 7:00 a.m. with a shotgun start at 8:00 a.m.
