Tee it Up Fore the Kids Raises $41,000 at 2024 Event

Aug 7, 2024

The Boys & Girls Club of Boone County held its annual golf outing on August 6 at the beautiful Golf Club of Indiana. The event brought together community members, local businesses, and supporters for a day of friendly competition and philanthropy, all in support of the Club’s programs and initiatives.

A Day of Fun and Philanthropy

The golf outing kicked off with a shotgun start at 10:00 A.M., with over 100 participants taking to the greens. Teams of four participated in a scramble format, enjoying a sunny day filled with laughter, camaraderie, and, of course, some impressive golfing skills.

Highlights

One of the highlights of the day was the hole-in-one contest, where golfers had the chance to win $10,000. Golfers had the chance to win incredible prizes, including a trip to Pebble Beach, for sinking a hole-in-one on a designated hole. While no one walked away with a beach vacation, the excitement and anticipation added an extra layer of thrill to the event.

Thank You to our Sponsors

A heartfelt thank you goes out to our generous sponsors, including Global Plastics, Global Packaging, and Levitetz Family Foundation. Their contributions were instrumental in making this event a success and ensuring that every dollar raised directly benefits the children and families served by the Club.

Fundraising Success

Thanks to the incredible support from participants, sponsors, and volunteers, the golf outing raised over $41,000 for the Boys & Girls Club of Boone County. These funds will go towards enhancing our programs, providing resources and opportunities for youth development, and ensuring a safe and nurturing environment for all our members.

Looking Ahead

As we reflect on the success of this year’s golf outing, we are filled with gratitude and excitement for the future. The funds raised will make a significant difference in the lives of the children we serve, and we are already looking forward to next year’s event, which promised to be even bigger and better.

Thank you to everyone who participated, sponsored, and volunteered. Your support is invaluable and helps us continue to make a positive impact in our community. We can’t wait to see you on the greens next year!
