Ninety-six golfers raised over $29,000 for a record-breaking day at the Southeastern Health Foundation’s 30th annual Swing for Good Health 
Golf Tournament held April 1 at Pinecrest Country Club Golf Course in Lumberton. It was a beautiful, but windy day with 24 teams competing for cash prizes, special hole prizes, and two hole-in-one opportunities.
The annual annual golf tournament provides financial assistance for medical, nursing, and allied health students in Robeson County and the surrounding region that are committed to caring for our community through the Horace E. Stacy, Jr., Academic Scholarship Endowment.

“Congratulation to all our winners and supporters,” said SeHealth Foundation Executive Director Sissy Grantham. “This tournament and many scholarships would not be possible without the local businesses and individuals participating as sponsors, prize donors, golfers and volunteers, understanding the value of those who have chosen to study medicine, nursing or allied health and who plan to return to this community to practice.”
