  8:30 am The Catoctine-Ettes, Inc., will be holding a Fundraising Golf Tournament On June 22, 2013 at Cedar Ridge Golf Course, 1225 Barlow Two-Taverns Road, Gettysburg, Pa.

We will be accepting 4 person teams or individuals. The tournament begins at 8:30 am and will be followed by a dinner and awards ceremony.

We welcome all golf skill levels. The tournament will be played as a Best Ball competition also known as Scramble. Each player of the four-person team hits from the tee. The team makes their next set of shots from the spot where the best ball landed. This process continues until the ball is in the hole.

The Catoctine-Ettes, Inc. is a recongnized non-profit 501(c)(3) competitive baton twirling, color guard, and pom pom organization from Emmitsburg, Md.

Our goal is to provide the youth of our area with an affordable activity that instills qualities such as teamwork, dependability, and sportsmanship in a program that builds self-esteem and pride in one's achievements. Our family oriented program incorporates baton twirling, juggling, dance and gymnastic moves, as well as competitive pom pom, and color guard arts. Classes are open to anyone ages 5 or older.

As an established youth group since 1972, we have performed in local parades and at charitable events and have earned prestigious titles in State, Regional, and National championships. In addition, we have been honored to perform half-time shows for basketball games for Mt. St. Mary's University as well as the Washington Wizards.
