Shiver for the Shelter Golf Tournament

LGSers gathered together at Farmstead Golf Links in Calabash, NC for another awesome group project volunteer opportunity. The annual Shiver for the Shelter golf tournament benefits the North Myrtle BeachHumane Society and is directed by Jeffrey Wisniewski, one of our own LGS Board of Regents members and his wife Patricia. In addition to the entry fee, players are also required to bring 100 lbs of dog/cat food or litter.

Our day involved setting up and checking in players while promoting additional mulligan sales and door prizes for the cause.  We also distributed goodie bags and had a few strong men load up the trailer with all of the food donated. In the afternoon, we fed players lunch and helped clean up the event.


132 players turned out for this great cause and we collected 7.5 tons of food and litter! The Humane Society was so grateful – they have a huge responsibility caring for these animals and not having to worry about the essentials is a big help. We had a great time helping a wonderful cause!
