EVANSVILLE, IN (WFIE) -

Get your golf clubs and cleats ready, the VHS Golf Scramble is just three weeks away.

The 2012 VHS Canine Classic is being held on Friday June 15th, at the Cambridge Golf Course. 

"We are in desperate need of golfers! Our event won't be successful without plenty of players. Hole sponsors are also needed. This is a great way for businesses to show community support," says Sydney Long, VHS PR Coordinator. "We're hoping to see more registrations come in over the next couple of weeks to ensure a fun and successful event."   

The Canine Classic registration is $75 for a single golfer and $320 per foursome. 

The registration fees include scramble participation, a lunch, contests and a gift bag for each player. 

The scramble also gives golfers a chance to play the Cambridge Golf course.  Golfers are encouraged to ask their employers to sponsor their participation in this charity event.

Participants will enjoy lunch at 11:30am and a shotgun start at 1 p.m. 

There are also several sponsorship opportunities still available for area businesses. Businesses can sponsor a hole and have a foursome play the course for $400.  Hole Sponsorships are $125 and include signage at 1 tee box. $1,000 Golf Cart Sponsorships are still available. 

The VHS Canine Classic will benefit the Vanderburgh Humane Society.
