WELLSBORO, PA--Recently, Angelo Serva, Laurel Health Pro-Am Committee member, presented Pete Herres, Director of Recreation, with a check for $4,000 for Wellsboro Parks and Recreation. The program has been applying for funds since the tournament's inception, using the support to further recreation activities to keep the kids exercising, active, and healthy.

Funds were raised during last September during the Laurel Health System Pro-Am Golf Tournament, and they will be used to purchase new equipment and maintain approximately twenty youth programs, including basketball, wrestling, softball, swimming, golf, and soccer teams.

For more information on Laurel Health System’s Pro-Am tournament or how to apply for funds, call the LHS Development Office at (570) 723-0494. For more information on Wellsboro Parks and Rec programs, visit wellsbororecreation.org.
