Birdies for BUDDY’S Race Against Cancer is a fundraising program designed to give avid golfers the opportunity to generate contributions based on the number of “birdies” they make through November 30, 2011.
Contributions benefit the BUDDY’S Race Against Cancer which provides funding for Thompson Cancer Survival Center’s Outreach Services program. Cancer Outreach Services offers cancer education and screenings to medically-underserved individuals in 18 counties across East Tennessee.

What is a birdie?
A “birdie” is a score of one stroke better than “par” for any golf hole on the course. “Par” is the normal expected score of a golfer on any given hole. For example, on a par 4 hole, a score of 3 is a birdie.
