Communication major follows God’s call to attend SWU

Communication major

"I fell in love with Southern Wesleyan University the first time I came to campus.

I was a sophomore in high school and was a member of a Wesleyan youth group. I had never heard of SWU until the youth group came to visit the campus for a CRAVE weekend, but the moment we drove into the parking lot, I felt like this was the college for me. I tried to fight it by looking into other schools, but God kept showing me this was the school He wanted me to attend."

Southern Wesleyan University’s 2010 P. B. Wood Golf Tournament will be teeing off on Monday, October 18, 2010, at Pickens Country Club.

This captain’s choice tournament has slots for 36 four-man teams. The spaces go fast, so please sign up quickly if you wish to participate. The fee is $400 for a team or $100 per player. Individual players are welcome to sign up and will be placed with a team. This fee covers greens fees, cart fees, meals and other prizes.

There are several opportunities to sponsor the tournament that will allow for name recognition, as well as opportunities to network throughout the day.

Sponsorships start at $100 for a tee sponsor and $250 for a hole sponsor. These receive a sign at either the tee or the hole. Corporate sponsorships are $1,000 and co-sponsorships are $2,500. These levels allow you to have the name of your choice on a banner and your name listed in the following issue of Focus magazine.

Fantastic prizes will be awarded to teams that place first through third, and participants can take part in a hole-in-one contest as well. A post-tournament meal will be provided by The Parkette of Pickens. Space is limited in this captain’s choice tournament, so please contact Erin Fellers at 864-644-5006 or by e-mail.
