Register for August diabetes golf benefit

Ankle and Foot Care Centers, operators of 19 local foot care offices, will host the 12th annual American Diabetes Association Golf Benefit, a four-person scramble Aug. 16, at the Lake Club in Poland.

A shotgun start is scheduled for 11:30 a.m., following sign-in at 10:30. The $90 fee per golfer includes 18 holes of golf, cart, lunch, beverages on the course, awards and dinner at the newly-renovated Lake Club.

Golfers can register by calling Michael Vallas at 330-629-8800.

The tournament raises money for diabetes research, through Ankle and Foot Care Centers and the Tri-County Chapter of the American Diabetes Association.
