The Nevada Rural Counties Retired and Senior Volunteer Program, Inc. (RSVP) thanks the community of Hawthorne and our local RSVP volunteers for coming together to raise money for seniors, Veterans, and adults living with disabilities inMineral County.
On Friday, May 20, golfers braved the unseasonably cool weather to tee off at the Walker Lake Golf Course in Hawthorne to raise funds for our local Mineral County RSVP Field Office. The event raised approximately $2,000 for lifesaving services in Mineral County.
“RSVP is so grateful for the support of the community and excited to celebrate Mineral County’s annual Armed Force Day with everyone. Thank you to all the golfers who participated in the tournament and to our sponsors and volunteers. We hope to see all of you again next year,” said Molly Walt, C.E.O.
