Locals hit the links to support Jimmy Crabtree Cancer Fund

WINTER GARDEN — Local golfers took to the links for a good cause on March 9 as participants in the Jimmy Crabtree Cancer Fund’s Fifth Annual Golf Tournament at West Orange Country Club.

The event, which included a silent auction and pulled pork dinner, raised money to help the organization’s goal of helping young families in the community who are battling cancer. The namesake for the organization is Jimmy Crabtree, a West Orange High alumni and Winter Garden man who passed away in 2011 due to carcinoid cancer.

Golfers of all levels participated in the tournament, which was open to the public.
