FORT MYERS, Fla. - April 15, 2013 - PRLog -- Golfers in Southwest Florida can enjoy a day of golf Saturday, June 1, while providing early learning child care scholarships for low-income families.

The Fourth Annual “Tee Time for Tots” Child Care Golf Tournament benefitting Child Care of Southwest Florida will be at Pelican Preserve Golf Club, 10571 Veneto Drive, near Colonial Boulevard in Fort Myers.
