BMW Charity Pro-Am



Imagination Library has been chosen as a partner charity in the 2010 BMW Charity Pro-Am! This is such an exciting opportunity for Imagination Library and United Way of the Piedmont! The BMW Charity Pro-Am will be played May 13-16 at Bright's Creek Golf Club, The Carolina Country Club and Thornblade Club.  Amateurs and celebrities are grouped with Nationwide Tour professionals in the four-day competition, which is played at all three courses. Amateurs and celebrities will compete for individual prizes and cash donations to the charity of their choice. 

If you don't know about Imagination Library, you are missing out on a great program that touches thousands of children in our community each month.  Imagination Library is an early learning and literacy program which provides a free, age appropriate book each month to registered children in Spartanburg and Union Counties. United Way of the Piedmont serves as the primary fundraiser for the program and is charged with securing $30 per enrolled child, per year to cover the costs of shipping the books.

You can help support Imagination Library through the BMW Charity Pro-Am in many different ways:
  1. Volunteer at The Carolina Country Club. There are different volunteer opportunities available, including serving as a marshal at holes 1 and 5. This is the best deal in town, folks! As a marshal, you will have a front row seat to greet celebrities and golfers...and it's all for charity!
  2. Purchase your patron credentials for the tournament from the United Way office! Patron credentials are $25 each and serve as your pass to all four days of play at three beautiful area golf courses! The best part is when you purchase your credential from the United Way office, Imagination Library gets to keep the $25!
If golf and celebrities aren't your thing, but you would like to support Imagination Library, you can visit our website to give directly to the program.   $30 will provide a child in our community with free books for an entire year!
