The Second Slykhuis Memorial Golf Outing was a HUGE SUCCESS!!!!Held at the Pheasant Ridge Golf Course, We had 17 foursomes (68 players) who wandered the links in search of their "best shot."
We had 18 Kiwanis members pop kettle corn, serve food, sell raffle tickets, manage serve to make this the huge success that it was.
The proceeds from this golf outing and last year's event funded the registration for the 130 kids (ages 7 - 18) who played in the youth event on Friday (the night before.
We earned over $6,600 from this event. This generous outcome included income from sponsors, registrations, in-course games, auctions, and raffles.
A big thanks to all for an excellent job. Extra thanks to Tim, Gene, Bob Nelson and Dean for heading this up and doing a lot of behind the scenes work.
While the Slykhuis Memorial Golf Outings have been successful over the past 2 years, we have decided that this will be the last year of the event. We will use the funds we have raised through these two golf outings support youth in golf throughout the Cedar Valley and then find other resources and events to continue with this sponsorship.
