'Birdies for Brian' to raise funds for cancer research

September 26, 2008

Wake Forest University students, alumni, faculty and staff will compete in a golf tournament Oct. 4 at Tanglewood Park to raise money for the Brian Piccolo Cancer Drive. The tournament is sponsored by the Theta Chi fraternity and the Interfraternity Council.

“Every person in the community has either known someone who had or has cancer, or has had it themselves,” says Taylor Donner, a junior at Wake Forest and member of Theta Chi.  “The Brian Piccolo events are great for raising money for cancer research because each event really does try to get the entire campus involved.”

The 18-hole tournament will begin at 1 p.m. at the Reynolds Course at Tanglewood Park.  All proceeds will go to the Wake Forest Cancer Research Center.
