According to a recent Island Packet news article, SC lawmakers are trying to find a way to continue to fund the Verizon Heritage Golf Tournament held at Harbour Town Golf Links in Sea Pines Plantation.  It was previously announced that Verizon would no longer return as the tournaments lead sponsor.

What the state is proposing would be a loan taken out by the Parks, Recreation & Tourism Department that would help promote tourism i.e. Heritage Golf Tournament.  It has already been approved by the House of Ways and Means Committee, however still needs to be added to their budget. 

This year marks the tournaments 42nd year and is as much a part of Harbour Town as it is Hilton Head Island and all Beaufort County.  Learn more about the tournament and tickets at www.verizonheritage.com/
