A Taste of Northern Virginia NOCC Golf Tournament

Help us Break the Silence on Ovarian Cancer by participating in the inaugural “A Taste of Northern Virginia NOCC Golf Tournament!” Our local volunteers are working tirelessly to make sure that this event properly celebrates our survivors, raises awareness about ovarian cancer, encourages friendly competition, and gives the community an opportunity to truly get a taste of Northern Virginia. Our goal is to raise $20,000 for this event, but we can only achieve this objective with your help. If everyone contributes a minimum of $50 we can surpass this goal and continue to Break the Silence on Ovarian Cancer!

Following the Golf Tournament there will be a Tasting Reception to benefit our chapter’s awareness and education programs. The reception will feature an acoustic performance by the renowned Brad Doggett, tastings from Willowcroft Vineyards, Dry Mill and Lost Creek Winery, food pairings from Executive Chef Larry Kessel of the Cancer Treatment Centers of America, Sanjeev Kumar of Angeethi Authentic Indian Cuisine Restaurant , Chef Antonio Iazzetti from Palio Italian Restaurant, a silent auction, and much much more! The event will take place at Westpark Golf Course in Leesburg, Virginia on September 22, 2012. Registration begins at 7:30 am, Tee time in TEAL attire will be at 9:00 am, with the reception to follow from 1:00-4:00 PM. We welcome all participants—men and women of all skill levels. It doesn't matter if you're yelling "Birdie" or "Fore" we eagerly anticipate your presence and appreciate your continued support of the National Ovarian Cancer Coalition.
