This 13 th

annual event is set for Wednesday, March 28 at Whitewater Creek

Country Club. While it's never too late to join the excitement as a sponsor,

you're going to have to get on a waiting list if you want to play because

the Tournament is sold out ­ with a total of forty foursomes!

Through sponsorships

and tournament fees, the Tune-up for the Masters Tournament is the biggest

Chamber fund raising event of the year. The Chairman of the Golf Tournament

Committee, Kevin Miller of Merrill Lynch adds, "The main purpose

behind the Tournament is to raise money for programs for the Chamber but

we also want to provide our members and citizens of the community a chance

to just have fun and network and pray for good weather."

Festivities

begin with an 11 a.m. lunch, sponsored by Wachovia Bank, followed immediately

which will be used to draw for numerous prizes. Everyone players and non-players

can take a "swing" for the drawing for a Grand Prize of two

Delta Business Elite tickets, sponsored by Delta Airlines, which are good

for travel anywhere in the US, Europe, South America, and the Caribbean.

John Boatright,

of Delta Airlines stated, "Delta is pleased to again this year be

a Diamond Sponsor of the Fayette County Chamber of Commerce Golf Tournament.

Many of Delta's employees call Fayette County home, and we are also privileged

to serve many other citizens as Delta's customers. A vibrant community

needs an active Chamber, and Fayette County is fortunate that we have

an excellent leadership team, active membership, and one that proactively

works to make this an even greater place to work and live. It is our hope

through this sponsorship we support the Chamber's many activities."

The chamber

would like to thank all who have signed up to date to sponsor the event.

and Fayette Community Hospital; Platinum Sponsor Coweta-Fayette EMC; Silver
