Why “Beauties Vs. The Beast?” A little history…
The Beauties vs. The Beast Tournament began in 2014 as the committee from the Persimmon Ridge Ladies Golf Association was inspired to bring to this region a new tournament for ladies that would benefit young women in need in our community. 2024 marks the 11th anniversary of this successful tournament.
The name "Beauties vs. The Beast" was a fun poke at a challenging golf course, Persimmon Ridge, that we know the beautiful women in our region can conquer.
After choosing Maryhurst to support as an important local charity that helps restore hope and healing to young women and children, the name developed even greater significance. Young women at Maryhurst have suffered unimaginable challenges and often Maryhurst is the last resort for them to receive help and healing from the "beasts" in their lives.
Because of the wonderful participation and generous hearts of women golfers, contributions from many amazing sponsors in the community, and the work of a large team of volunteers donating their time and resources, we are grateful to have been able to donate more than $166,000 since the tournament began.

In Kentucky, the state with the second-highest child abuse rate, Maryhurst is saving kid's lives. Their work prevents abuse, restores hope, and empowers survivors.
At the first sign of conflict, Maryhurst's counseling program partners with families to strengthen relationships and protect kids' safety. For girls whose histories of trauma have left them without a safe home, our residential programs provide a place of healing.

Some form of family development—be it strengthening existing bonds or building new ones – is the goal we set with every child in our care.
