Pirate's Cove Adventure Golf in Winnisquam and Weirs Beach will host the 3rd Annual "Putting for Patriots" fundraiser on Sunday, May 24. This national event will occur simultaneously at 35 miniature golf courses throughout the United States.
Three non-profit agencies who actively support and serve veterans will be the beneficiaries of this event. These organizations include "Hope for the Warriors", the "Marine Corps Scholarship Foundation" and "Homes for Our Troops". Pirate's Cove will donate a percentage of their total sales on Sunday. In addition, throughout the entire holiday weekend, each golf course will accept donations to be turned over to the three charities. Since its inception, the event has raised over $32,000.
"Memorial Day was specifically founded 141 years ago to remember those who died serving our nation," said Brad Graft, Pirate's Cover partner and regional director. "Our family of miniature golf courses 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.
