Practice your swing and make a difference at the same time by attending Houston SPCA's Tee Off for Wildlife golf tournament on December 3.

Every year, the Houston SPCA’s Wildlife Center of Texas takes in more than 12,000 ill, injured, and orphaned native wildlife from 270 species.

It is the largest and most sophisticated wildlife response center in Texas, and the only trauma and wildlife rehabilitation center in southeast Texas that treats every wild animal that needs help.

The staff works tirelessly, and now it's our turn to help them by showing up to Topgolf at 1030 Memorial Brook Blvd.

The golf tournament will be hosted in temperature-controlled bays, and players of all ages and skill level are welcome and encouraged to register.

You can build a team, play as an individual, or attend as a guest — regardless, everyone will be treated to a tasty breakfast. There will be live tournament leaderboards and automated game scoring to display each team’s activity in real time.

You can also bid on silent auction items and meet the Wildlife Center' education ambassadors. They include an Eastern Screech Owl, Harris’ Hawk, and Crested Caracara.

The tournament runs from 10 am-1 pm on December 3, and you can register online here. Sponsorships are available at events@houstonspca.org or by calling 713-869-7722, extension 148.
