North Belle Vernon park to host fundraiser at Topgolf
By Megan Tomasic
A new event will help raise money for the North Belle Vernon Community Bank Park — an area for kids, people with special needs and those looking for a place to play soccer or dek hockey.
On June 2, park founder Robert J. Sokol will host a Topgolf fundraiser with the goal of raising half of the yearly $25,000 budget. Topgolf, with a location in Bridgeville, is an entertainment venue where golfers hit balls at targets.
“This Topgolf fundraiser is extremely important to us,” Sokol said.
The park at 702 Graham St. officially opened in 2016 after three years of renovations. Learning the park was going to close in 2013, Sokol approached borough officials and asked if he could renovate it.
