Fallbrook Chamber's Avocado Open to benefit FLC

FALLBROOK – The Fallbrook Chamber of Commerce has added a new event to its calendar for 2021 – the Avocado Open Golf Tournament, scheduled for Friday, May 7, at Pala Mesa Resort. To be clear, this tournament is in addition to the annual Charity Golf Tournament held in the fall.

A portion of the proceeds from the tournament and the putting contest will benefit the Fallbrook Land Conservancy, a nonprofit which protects more than 3,000 acres of open space in the community through land ownership and conservation easements.

FLC provides more than 13 miles of trails on eight preserves in Fallbrook, which are open for the community, thanks to the generosity of its donors, members and volunteers. Many plans are in the works for continued trail improvement, additional land and education as well as current renovations to the historic Palomares House and its Wildlife Sculpture Garden.

Another bonus will be the opening of the Gird Valley Preserve to the public. The Chamber hopes to support its efforts through this event.

The Avocado Open will also include lunch, contests on the course and entry into a cash opportunity drawing for three separate prizes. Each golfer will receive a souvenir Avocado Open cap, courtesy of the Goodie Sponsor, Martin Quiroz of Essex Mortgage. Top golfer awards will be sponsored by the local Fallbrook Masonic Lodge No. 317.

Several sponsorships are being offered, including the opportunity to sponsor a veteran to play. For more information regarding the tournament, to make a donation or sign up to play, contact the Fallbrook Chamber office at 760-728-5845 or online at http://www.fallbrookchamberofcommerce.org.
