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.

For more information, contact Susan.Hagel@allina.com or paige.safranski@allina.com at 612-863-5712.
