Golf with Us at Round Up
Golfers, if you are planning to join us for the 2018 Round Up September 24-26 in San Antonio, make plans to come a day early for our annual LIPAC Golf Tournament on the morning of the 24th. The tournament, which is being held at The Quarry Golf Course, is a fundraiser for our PAC. The entry fee also includes breakfast at the club and the post-tournament awards luncheon. You can register for the tournament on the Round Up registration form; sponsorships which include complimentary tournament entry are also available. FAQs about the tournament can be found here.

Many thinks to golf tournament sponsors to date Pacific Life, Reliable Life, and National Farm Life. Thanks also to our newest Round Up sponsors, American Fidelity and Mutual of Omaha.
