USC, the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), and the S.C. Junior Golf Association will hold the first Meredith Thompson Memorial Golf Tournament Oct. 8 at the Fort Jackson Golf Club.
The tournament, organized by USC's College of Liberal Arts, honors Thompson, a USC alumna and DEA agent who was killed in 1994 while on duty. Proceeds will go toward scholarships in Thompson's name for USC students majoring in criminal justice.
Registration will be at 8:30 a.m. Play in the captain's-choice format will begin at 10 a.m. with a shotgun start. The cost of the tournament is $65 for individuals and $250 for a team of four. Each golfer will receive a number of gifts, including an embroidered golf shirt, for participating. Several prizes also will be raffled.
To register, call USC's College of Liberal Arts at 7-7161 or go to www.cla.sc.edu/golf/.
