AMOS TO ATTEND BALD RIDGE GOLF BENEFIT TODAY
CUMMING -- Pete Amos, who is running for the District 1 seat on the Forsyth County Board of Commissioners in the July 20th Republican primary, announced today he will not participate in the Smart Growth Forsyth County candidate forum Tuesday due to a scheduling conflict.
"Bald Ridge Lodge, a non-profit organization that provides a safe haven for young boys in our community is holding a fund raising event today," Amos said. "I feel like it's more important for me to be there and do all I can to help them. There will be other candidate forums and I look forward to participating in them."
Amos said he notified Smart Growth of the conflict last week.
Bald Ridge is hosting its first Celebrity Golf Tournament today in hopes of raising funds for the organization. The tournament will be followed by a live and silent auction.
Bald Ridge Lodge is a Stabilization and Assessment Center for boys between the ages of 12 and 17. Its mission is to provide a safe haven and counseling in a therapeutic environment for boys who are in need of protection, direction and supervision. Through partnership with referring agencies, as well as families, Bald Ridge focuses on family reunification and restoration.
"Bald Ridge Lodge provides a tremendous humanitarian service to our community and I hope everyone will support them in their effort," Amos added.
