Golf Update!
Golf Scramble Recap
Perfect weather, great
company and golf—what better way to spend a summer afternoon
and support a good cause? On Monday, July 16th, golfers at the
United Cerebral Palsy Minnesota 11th Annual golf tournament drove
and putted to raise money to support “the independence, productivity
and full citizenship of people with cerebral palsy.” The only ingredient
missing might have been a batch of umbrellas to protect golfers from the dazzling
sun. ![]()
More Golf Anyone?
For anyone with
a hankering to play more golf this summer – Sister
Kenny Rehabilitation Institute sponsors a summer golf league
and annual tournament for golfers with physical disabilities.
Assistive equipment is provided.
When Susan
Hagel started the SK Golf Program in 1979, there were
six golfers. Now the league boasts about 70 golfers each
Monday. Hagle says the most funshe gets “is seeing
the enjoyment that people have. Seeing them develop with
their self-confidence.”

The 2007 league runs on
Mondays, 3-9 p.m., through August 27th, at Braemar Golf Course in
Edina. The tournament is Friday, August 24th.
