Make a difference while having fun at the NFDA Convention this year!

2010 Funeral Service Foundation Golf Classic
Sunday, October 10, 2010
Lakewood Golf Club
New Orleans, Louisiana
www.lakewoodgolf.com 

Join your friends, fellow funeral directors and valued clients for a rousing game of golf at this years's NFDA Convention, experiencing one of New Orleans' finest courses while enjoying the camaraderie of your funeral service peers.

A favorite site for PGA Tour professionals, Lakewood is another shining example of New Orlean's resilience.  With over $9 million in recent renovations, award-winning golf course architect Ron Garl preserved the character of the original course while upgrading the 18-hole, 7,002 yards, par 72 course with modernized fairways, tee boxes and greens - new improvements to an old favorite.

Garl, who has designed golf courses all over the world, added strategy and fun with new fairway contouring and unique bunkering.

The 444-yard "Fire in the Hole" sets a new standard for bunkers. The new 18th hole includes traps in the shape of flames set in red sand, a tribute to New Orleans Firefighters. It is the only one of its kind in the world.

Your participation will help to:

• Attract, retain and educate funeral service professionals
• Promote the value of the death care profession to the public
• Provide scholarships to funeral service students and professionals
• Support children's grief programs
