WORTON — The Animal Care Shelter for Kent County (ACSKC) is excited to announce their inaugural “Putt for Paws” golf tournament. The tournament will take place on Friday, July 12, at the Chester River Yacht & Country Club, featuring an 18-hole scramble format. Registration begins at noon, with a shotgun start for golfers at 1 p.m. For those interested in relaxed fun off the fairway, an after-party, including bocce, will be held from 4:30 to 7 p.m.

The golf fee is all-inclusive and covers 18 holes, cart fees, food, drinks, and the after-party at $250 per individual golfer or $1000 for a foursome. For those attending only the after-party, the $150 fee includes drinks, heavy appetizers, and bocce.

Richard Keaveney, executive director of the Animal Care Shelter for Kent County, shared his enthusiasm for the event. “We are thrilled to host our first golf tournament fundraiser. It’s a wonderful opportunity for our supporters to come together, enjoy a day on the green with the community, and sustain the vital work we do for the animals in our care. We look forward to seeing both golfers and non-golfers alike for a beautiful day at the Club!”
