Lacasse adds any funds raised above what's needed for the bursary will support the Lady Dunn Health Centre Foundation.

She also emphasizes participants could end up with great prizes no matter their skill level - as many are "luck of the draw" - though there are hole-in-one prizes of $500 cash from the Viking Restaurant and a vehicle from Mission Motors.

Tee-offs begin at 1 o'clock this afternoon.
