Fannin County, Texas -- The Fannin Health Clinic (FHC) recently held its second annual golf tournament at Legacy Ridge Golf Course to raise funds to operate the no cost clinic for Fannin County residents that are low income and have no health insurance.  The tournament raised over $7,000 that will be used to provide medications, laboratory tests and medical supplies for the 225 patients currently enrolled in the clinic.

The FHC Board of Directors appreciates the 12 teams that participated, with 3 teams from local churches.  There were 48 golfers and 40 various entities that sponsored the event.  A special thanks to Legacy Ridge,  Tommie Sue Turner for providing all the sponsor signs free of charge and the many volunteers that made the tournament a success.
