BELLEAIR, Fla., Oct. 28, 2024 – Pelican Golf Club and The ANNIKA driven by Gainbridge at Pelican are teaming up to develop special “Florida Strong” t-shirts and sweatshirts, benefiting the Florida Disaster Fund through the Volunteer Florida Foundation in helping those impacted by Hurricanes Helene and Milton.
Florida Strong t-shirts and sweatshirts are available for purchase starting today at the following link HERE. Multiple shirt designs are available and cost $40 (t-shirt) or $65 (sweatshirt). Florida Strong shirts also will be available for purchase in the pro-shop at Pelican Golf Club during tournament week at The ANNIKA, Nov. 11-17.
