FOR A GOOD CAUSE

The Orange County Interfaith Shelter announced it had raised more than $38,000 at its recent golf tournament, held at Mesa Verde Country Club in Costa Mesa.

Proceeds from the tournament, in its third year, went to the shelter, one of the largest venues for homeless families and single women in Orange County.

Nicole Barker, a spokesperson for the shelter, said it was the organization’s most successful tournament to date.

Fleming’s Prime Steakhouse in Newport Beach has found a unique way to publicize the upcoming Ryder Cup matches.

The restaurant is holding The American vs. European Wine Dinner on April 28. The dinner will include dishes and wines from America and Europe as picked by the restaurant’s executive chef and wine director.
