A local golf tournament held last week to benefit youngsters statewide was a success.More than 100 players participated in the eighth annual Forsyth County Sheriff Ted Paxton Golf Tournament at Windermere Golf Club. The event raised $12,676 for the Georgia Sheriffs’ Youth Homes.A grateful Paxton, who serves as president of the Youth Homes board of directors, said the program provides housing for children through donations alone.“We always have a tremendous turnout,” Paxton said of the tournament. “It’s just been very gratifying to see all the support throughout the community.”He said the organization currently houses 80 children throughout the state.
