If you ever wanted to hit a few golf balls with a former Cy Young winner, here’s your chance.

It will cost you at least $250, but it’s all going towards a good cause.

Topgolf in Alpharetta will host the "Hines and Smoltz Golf Charity Fundraiser" on June 20 from 5:30 to 9:30 p.m. Prizes, food and drinks will be available, and other celebrity guests could be on hand.

And of course, Atlanta Braves legend John Smoltz will be there shaking hands and mingling with guests. He’ll speak to the crowd at 7:45 p.m.

Proceeds from the tickets, which can be purchased at Eventbrite, will go towards the "Securing A Mind Foundation"— a nonprofit organization based in Cumming that works with local youths.

The foundation is owned by Samuel Hines, a Georgia resident who played college basketball at South Alabama and then for 16 seasons in various countries. The 6-foot-7 swingman averaged more than 14 points per-game at South Alabama in 1992. He founded his organization in 2003.
