WR Rotary supports
Ferst Foundation
Golf tourney to help put books
in the hands of children
Special to the Journal
The Warner Robins Rotary
Club is, according to a
release, a “proud contribu
tor” of the Ferst Foundation
for Childhood Literacy.
“Literacy is a continu
ing problem for Houston
County,” said Ashley Sitz,
who is in charge of public
relations for the club, and
on behalf of the club. “The
Ferst Foundation is dedicat
ed to helping introduce read
ing books into the homes of
young children that would
typically not have books
available in their home.”
As part of the foundation
and Warner Robins club’s
efforts, a book is delivered to
the home of an eligible child
until that child is 5 years
old.
“Houston County is new to
the program and the Warner
Robins Rotary Club is hon
ored to help support such
a wonderful program,” Sitz
said.
To help with the effort, the
club is sponsoring a char
ity golf tournament Oct.
21 at the Landings. A por
tion of the proceeds will be

Inc., a Christian-based non
profit medical organization
that performs cataract sur
geries for people in China.
Sponsorships and team space
is available.
The cost to play in the
tournament is SSO for both
members and non-members.
The price tag also includes
lunch, cart, range balls, din
ner and all raffles. Raffles
include one for two nights
at Hilton Head. Prizes will
also be awarded for first, sec
ond and third, closest to hole
and longest drive. The for
mat is four-person scramble
with the event slated to start
at 1 p.m. For more infor
