Katy Christian Ministries has announced plans for a socially-distanced golf tournament fundraiser set for Sept. 28 with a goal of raising $100,000 to support operations at the local nonprofit that includes a food pantry and family crisis counseling, among other services.

“KCM is truly blessed to have such a passionate community behind us,” Deysi Crespo, Executive Director of Katy Christian Ministries, said. “Myself and the entire KCM team, thank you for your support of the work we do and of this reformatted tournament.”

Tee times will begin at 8 a.m. according to a KCM press release with about 35 teams competing at the 18-hole course at Willow Fork County Club in Katy. In order to enable social distancing, the tournament will feature staggered tee times rather than the traditional shotgun start.

In addition to changing the way the tournament begins, the event will feature an online silent auction that both golfers and the general public can participate in. Multiple raffles are and a Hole in One competition which includes an opportunity to win a new Chevy Equinox. A closest to the pin game, raffles and Bubba Drive are also planned.

Registration is still open to participate as a sponsor or as a golfer. Registration can be completed online at www.ktcm.org/golf.
