I know that Lake Merced Golf Club has amateur charity events. They are in SF.\n\nYou should also try the Women's Golf Association of Northern California. They promote amateur tournaments as well. Here's their website: http://www.wganc.com/

Check the yellow pages.\n\nBy the way, are you so parochial that you suppose there is only one "bay area" in the world?

Some of my friends are top fund raisers for a local charity event similar to the walk that you are doing.  Here are some ideas that seem to work for them:\n-Raffles - One guy holds a raffle at work for $200 Best Buy gift certificate for 1st place, a $100 g.c. for 2nd place and a couple of 3rd and 4th place items like ball caps.  Another friend raffles off 1 day of labor.  \n-Sending letters - One guy swears by sending letters.  He makes it a point to send at least 100 letters.  He finds many people are willing to give to a good cause and there's the occasional person that plunks down a big chunk of change.  Keep your donors informed with a pre and post newsletter about the event, why you are doing it, etc.\n-Host a smaller walk.  A group of us organize a smaller event and we typically raise $4k-$5k collectively. \n-Make coin cans and ask some of your favorite businesses to put it by their cash registers to allow people to drop some spare change in.\n-Ask people to donate garage sale items and have a garage sale with all of the proceeds going to your event.  Get a guy out there at the garage sale to grill some hot dogs and brats (tip: make sure to through copious onions on the grill - the smell attracts people like flies) and sell brats and sodas. \n\nI hope these ideas help.  Good luck!

what else do you want to do? Go to www.playgolfamerica.com  This search engine is all about that type of stuff.  There is a women's association I think it's EWAG check it out.  Last week was woman's golf week.  Everyone had programs to promote that.  Take your daughter to golf course week is coming soon.

Call your local cable company. Some have a channel that advertises events in the area and they may let a non-profit or charity advertise for free. I volunteer with a non-profit organization and the local cable company let us have a space for free. Call your local radio stations and see if they will do a "spot" for you. Call the local T.V. news station and tell them about your event and what charity it is for and they may promote it for you during the news report. I hope this gives you some ideas.

There is a Yahoo golf group called SFBAGS · SF Bay Area Golf and Social Group http://sports.groups.yahoo.com/group/SFBAGS/  The owner of the group developed a program will keep your handicap and track your scores and golf courses you play.  You can download files page.  He will let you use it as long as you don't sell it.
