Chris Blue is known by many in the Chapel Hill community through his position as the Chief of Police. But he has also long served as a board member for a Carrboro-based non-profit.
“I got on the Board of Directors for Volunteers For Youth maybe 15 years ago,” Blue says. “[I] served as Board Treasurer and Board President for a while. And now I’m just an old board member.”
Blue says Volunteers For Youth will hold the 2015 Larry Fedora Charity Golf Tournament on Monday.
He says the golf tournament has been the main fundraiser for the non-profit for more than a decade and this will be the second year that Fedora is associated.
If you would like to participate in the fundraiser and hit the links on Monday, you need to get your registration information in to Volunteers For Youth. Blue adds if you don’t have a full foursome not to worry, they’ll have a spot for you.
“If you want to play, we’ll get you paired up with somebody,” he says. “It’s in the spirit of fun and in the spirit of supporting a really worthwhile local organization. All skill levels are welcome.”
You can find registration information here. Registration must be submitted by the end of the day Friday. Registration is $150 and includes the round of golf, breakfast, lunch, and gifts.
You can contact Volunteers For Youth at (919) 967-4511.
