The Lackawanna Blind Association's Swing for Sight Golf Tournament is an annual fundraising event aimed at supporting the organization's vital services for individuals with vision impairments.
The tournament features a day of golf, raffles, contests, and an awards ceremony, offering participants a fun and engaging way to contribute to a meaningful cause. One of the day's highlights is the Blind Putting Contest, an engaging activity where golfers putt while blindfolded, offering them a unique insight into the challenges faced by the blind and visually impaired.
