“Putting for Patriots” Event Held Memorial Day Weekend

Pirate’s Cove Adventure Golf in Sister Bay will host the Second Annual “Putting for Patriots” fundraiser on Sunday, May 25, 2008. This national event will occur simultaneously at 35 Pirate’s Cove, Pirate’s Island and Jungle Golf miniature golf courses throughout the United States.

Three non-profit agencies, who actively support and serve veterans, will be the beneficiaries during this Memorial Day Weekend event. These organizations include: “Hope for the Warriors,” the “Marine Corps Scholarship Foundation” and “Homes for Our Troops.” Pirate’s Cove, Jungle Golf and Pirate’s Island will donate a percentage of their total sales on Sunday, May 25. In addition, throughout the entire holiday weekend, each golf course will accept donations to be turned over to the three charities.

“Memorial Day was specifically founded 139 years ago to remember those who died serving our nation,” notes Brad Graft, Pirate’s Cove Partner and Regional Director. “The Pirate’s Cove/Pirate’s Island family thought it appropriate to establish an annual event to serve charities that assist our living veterans – men and women who have sacrificed so much for our freedom.”

Pirate’s Cove and Pirate’s Island operate 35 miniature golf courses throughout the United States. For more information, visit their Web sites: http://www.piratescove.net, http://www.piratesislandgolf.com, and http://www.junglegolfminigolf.com.
