Money Raised For Project Hope

Sonora, CA — Sonora Regional Medical Center’s Project Hope Golf Classic raised $63,557 this year.

The event was held Wednesday at Greenhorn Creek in Angels Camp. SRMC’s Gail Witzlesteiner reports that this year’s event raised $12,000 more than the previous year. Funding will benefit Project Hope, a twice-a-week free mobile health clinic at the Crossroads Shopping Center in Sonora. The golf classic, chaired this year by Tuolumne County Sheriff Jim Mele, saw 156 entrants.
