NILES - Looking for that last minute gift idea? A pair of tickets to the Buick Open would make a perfect stocking stuffer.
The Niles High School men's golf team has been given the opportunity to sell Buick Open tickets at a reduced price to raise money for the program.
This year's Buick open will be held July 31-Aug. 6, 2006 at Warwick Hills Golf and Country Club in Grand Blanc.
Tickets for this event normally cost $30 in advance or $35 at the gate. The golf team is selling the same tickets for only $20. For every ticket sold, the team will receive $10 and the remaining net proceeds are donated to Buick Open charities, after expenses.
The Buick Open has raised more than $7.2 million for Michigan charities since 1982.
If you are interested in purchasing tickets and would like to get one or more, contact a member of the men's golf team, head coach Greg Gunder at 687-8464 or stop by the Niles High School Athletic office at 1441 Eagle Street or call 684-8683.
All monies will be run through Niles High School Athletics, so any check should be made out to the school.
Tickets will be available until March 30, 2006.
