and
the

Nevada
Retail
Beverage
Association
is
planning
an
all
star,
fun
filled
golf

this
summer.
This
event
is
intended
to

more
minority

in
the
sport
of
Golf
and
raise
scholarship
funds
for
intercity
kids.
This
local
golf
 classic
is
scheduled
for
Saturday,
July
12th
&
13th
at
a
variety
of
black
owned
establishments
and

The
proceeds
from
this

community
based
event
will
benefit
the
Southern

Retail
Beverage
Association

Fund
and
the
Nevada
Inner
City
Youth
Golf
Association.
This
tournament
will
be
their
8th
annual

classic
and
promises
to
be
another
successful
event.
Since
1990,
the

primarily
operated
in
the
inner
city
community
and
has
been
committed
to
providing
youth
with
an
opportunity
to
reach
their
highest
potential.
The
Youth
Scholarship
Program
was
designed
to
encourage
minority
students
to
excel
academically,
socially
and
professionally.
This
influential
community
minded
business
groups
mission
is
“to
inspire
the
youth
of
today
to
be
the
best
that
they
can
be”.
The y
believe
the
values
taught
and
life
skills
learned
through
the
game
of
golf
will
carry
on
throughout
the
lives
of
the
kids
and
open
the
sport
up
to
new
potential
Tiger
Woods.
Don

the
Majestic
Star
and
Fitzgerald’s
family

resort
casinos
has
joined
this
worthwhile
community

organization
to
demonstrate
the
commitment
of
his
corporation

a
family

and
socially
conscious
gaming
environment
in
the
city
of
Las
Vegas.
By
partnering
with
Southern

Golf
Association
(SNICYGA)
they
can
expose
many
in
the
community
to
the
business,
social
and
health
benefits
of
Golf
while
simultaneously
providing
at-risk
inner
city
kids
with
an
alternative
activity
other
than
the
streets.
Honesty,
integrity,
good
sportsmanship,
individual
leadership
and
dedication
are
cornerstones
of
the
SNICYGA,
which
offers
clinics,
open
practice
sessions,
trips
to
tournaments
and
a
scholarship
fund,
free
of

to
its
members.

200
kids

participated
in
this
program
over
the
past
seven
years,
which
is

inner
city

have
gone
on

their
high

teams
and
a
few
have
earned
college
golf
scholarships.
