children in seven homes.  LPGA Commissioner Charles Mecham:  "We
are happy to be returning in partnership with Chick-fil-A, a
hometown sponsor, to provide Atlanta with the very best in

non-profit, Metro South Golf Charities, Inc., will produce the
event.  Chick-fil-A is one of the largest privately held
restaurant chains and the third-largest fast-food chicken chain,
