Timberlake Golfers Tee It Up For Chapin High Students

Timberlake Golfers Tee It Up For Chapin High Students

It’s been a perfect day at Timberlake Country Club for the 21st Annual Chapin Chamber of Commerce Golf Tournament.  With temperatures in the 70’s and sunny skies, 156 golfers teed it up  for charity, with proceeds going to support a scholarship fund for Chapin High School students and the general fund for the Chamber of Commerce.

Event organizers were pleased with the increase in participation this year.  The 156 golfers represented an increase from the 110 who participated last year.  The higher number of golfers was in part attributed to having two shot gun starts this year, one in morning and one in the afternoon giving more golfers a chance to fit the event into their schedules. This was the third consecutive year that Timberlake hosted the event and organizers said the course is a favorite of Chamber members. 

Seventeen Chapin High school students applied for the scholarship this year. Students were interviewed by Chamber board members who teamed up with the American Legion and its scholarship fund to conduct joint interviews. This is done to increase the number of students who benefit from the scholarships. 

Timberlake residents enjoy the golf course all year long, even if they don’t golf! The course winds through wooded areas and many holes provide stunning views of Lake Murray making for a great venue to get in some exercise by walking along the cart paths. Besides the great golfing, residents who don’t live in waterfront homes can rent a boat slip from the Timberlake Marina and enjoy all the benefits of living near Lake Murray.  One of those benefits is the great real estate values the area offers.
