MFCA 2nd Annual Golf Tournament 
 
As most of you are aware the Maryland Fire Chiefs Association sponsored their 1st Annual Golf Tournament in 2011.  Each year the association makes a decision on who the proceeds of the tournament are to benefit. We are proud to say that we presented a check to National Fallen Firefighters Foundation at our April 2012 meeting in the amount of $ 7,500.00. Thanks to everyone who supported last year’s tournament.
 
The committee held their first meeting last evening for the 2nd annual tournament to be held on Friday September 7th, 2012 at Renditions Golf Club in Davidsonville, Maryland. Again this year the tournament proceeds will be presented to the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation.
 
As in 2011 we need everyone’s support with the 2012 tournament. We have attached a flier for this year’s tournament and we are requesting that each of our members to take the flier to your local departments, associations, local businesses, families and friends to get their support.
 
If you have any questions please feel free to contact Terry Thompson
