Wonderland Golf & Gourmet

Support the extraordinary usefulness and beauty of the Monte Rio Community Center

Northwood Golf Course will be the location of this first annual Golf & Gourmet event will benefit the equipment fund of the Monte Rio Recreation and Park District.

Since the 1940’s, the Monte Rio Recreation and Park District has been caring for the lands under its charge with great success. People flock to our river beaches throughout the year and recognize that this is an outstanding natural playground.

Thousands of people have visited their many venues; the Amphitheater, River Meadow, Beaches, Koret Park and most recently, the Monte Rio Community Center – and enjoyed family reunions, weddings, political events and fundraisers.

The First Annual Wonderland GOLF and Gourmet will benefit the equipment fund of the MRRPD and will raise needed funds for tables, chairs, kitchen equipment for the Monte Rio Community Center, as well other equipment necessary for use at our other venues.

The MRRPD is eager for everyone to get to know more about them and by participating in this tournament, or buying a ticket to the gourmet dinner, they will have a chance to hear about MRRPD’s plans for the future and to see firsthand, the extraordinary usefulness and beauty of the Monte Rio Community Center. This organization has served the community for decades, and with the public’s participation, the MRRPD can become an even stronger organization with more desirable places for everyone to enjoy.

Please join in the fun as a golfer, diner, sponsor, donor or volunteer and help make this event as special as the lands MRRPD’s protects and maintains.
