OMH Foundation’s Golf Ball Drop set for Wednesday

The Oconee Memorial Hospital (OMH) Foundation hosts their big Golf Ball Drop on Wednesday, Sept. 27, tells Cortni Nations, Manager of the OMH Foundation. “Wednesday is our annual Golf Ball Drop where we will drop numbered golf balls from atop a Seneca Fire Department Ladder Truck, so we’re very excited. We have sold 140 as of this morning, so plenty more if folks are interested. The three landing closest to the bull’s eye that will be painted at the hospital field out back of the Cancer Center, those three closest to the bull’s eye will win cash money, so very exciting. Of course, the proceeds go back to benefit our Safe Kids Program, our AccessHealth Dental Clinic for the indigent, and our Breast Care Center as we try to bring 3-D mammography to our hospital.” Nations tells how to purchase a golf ball for the big drop. “Folks can purchase golf balls by calling OMH Foundation at 864-885-7912, we can tack a credit card over the phone or you can stop by and see us with a check or you can stop by the Gift Shop here at the hospital and get your entry form in. The balls are $50 an entry and you can go in with as many friends as you would like and split the winnings.” Nations gives the deadline to purchase your chance to win. “We will sell golf balls until all 200 are sold, so right up until Wednesday, Sept. 27, at noon, we’ll still be selling them if we haven’t sold all 200.” The Golf Ball Drop takes place at OMH on Wednesday, Sept. 27, at noon.
