Encinitas school charity goes to San Marcos for golf fundraiser

Wait a minute. Don't we have a quasi-municipal golf course here in Encinitas? Why did the city get in bed with developer Carltas if we can't even use the golf course for stuff like this?

Patch:
The Encinitas Educational Foundation (EEF) started the school year on a successful note, raising about $9,300 with its Aug. 8 golf tournament. The event, held at Twin Oaks Golf Course in San Marcos, benefitted the nine campuses in the Encinitas Union School District that are served by the private, nonprofit foundation.

The tournament drew 48 participants, including district Superintendent Tim Baird. Several district administrators, district school board members, school principals, teachers and parents also played, donated, or volunteered their time. Sponsors included local businesses such as Pagni Real Estate, Tina’s Deli, Stratford Court CafĂ©, Callaway Golf, TaylorMade Golf, Which Wich Sandwiches, and Adonai Producciones.
Was the EEF turned down by Encinitas Ranch, or did they just not want play on a "goat patch?"

  2. The Artwalk is in Leucadia this Sunday, I'd much prefer it was in San Marcos but it is what it is. 101 artists on Hwy 101 in Leucadia. 10-5. See you there and support the Streetscape.
