Chip in for charity at Forsgate

The Forsgate Foundation’s Chip in for Charity fundraising event Aug. 26 will benefit Autism Speaks of New Jersey.

The day at Forsgate Country Club will begin with an 18-hole golf outing on the Banks Course, followed by an evening barbecue, a silent auction and a concert by New Jersey party band The Nerds.

“Real Housewives of New Jersey” star Jacqueline Laurita is scheduled to make an appearance at the evening event.

The entry fee for the golf outing is $125, which includes admittance into the evening barbecue, auction and concert. For those who wish to skip the golf outing, tickets are available for just the barbecue and concert for $50.

Golf-outing participants will have a chance to win a 2014 Mercedes-Benz EClass with a hole-in-one on No. 7 or Rutgers University football season tickets with a hole-in-one on No. 12. Auction items include a Yankees “dream day,” foursomes at golf clubs and a chef’s dinner.
