You Can Have Fun Helping the Boys & Girls

One of the most successful fund-raising events in Kalamazoo County, from the outside, looks pretty ordinary -- it’s “just” a golf outing. But this golf outing is no ordinary event, thanks to a dedicated volunteer crew, dozens of gener-ous sponsors, hundreds of golfers and a special cause.

Filling three golf courses, the event enjoys much of its success because the cost of each additional golfer goes down. But the success also depends on those who pay their part with program ads, which start at $25, tee sponsorships, corporate sponsorships and golfers. The goal is to raise more than $50,000 every year.

There’s still time to get involved at almost any level, according to Greta Faworski, who can be reached at 349-4485, extension 109. Give her a call. Or visit bgckzoo.org and download a registration form.
