ALTON - The Riverbender.com Community Center will be hosting the first ever Golf Scramble to benefit the community center at 11:30 a.m. on Saturday, April 14, at Spencer T. Olin Golf Course at 4701 College Avenue in Alton.

Teams of four can register from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. and enjoy a lunch buffet before the shotgun start at 1 p.m. Following the scramble, there will be a dinner buffet at 6 p.m. as well as prizes awarded for a putting contest, the closest to the pin, hole-in-one, and best dressed.

Registration is $500 which includes the foursome in the tournament, golf cart, lunch, dinner, beverages and snack, as well as first, second and third place cash payouts.

Jama Fabry, with the Riverbender.com Community Center, said it's important to create safe places for children and the community to gather.

"We don't have a lot of place in the Alton area for kids to go that are safe and have chaperones," she said. "It's a great opportunity for kids to have some fun but also be in a safe environment and there is something there for everyone. There's a music room, art area, rock climbing wall, there's really something for everyone."
