MIdwest Shelter Golf Outing & BBQ @ Klein Creek Golf Club

The Midwest Shelter for Homeless Veterans will hold its seventh annual Golf Outing and Texas BBQ fundraiser
on Sunday, Aug. 26 at Klein Creek Golf Club in Winfield.  Eighteen holes of golf, in a team
scramble format, begins at 1 p.m. with a shotgun start.  A complete Texas BBQ buffet dinner follows
golf at 6 p.m. 

“Since we started in 2006, the MSHV golf outing has raised more than $75,000 in support of homeless veterans in DuPage County,” said Event Chairman Tim
Stanley, who also serves on the MSHV board. 
“Every year our goal is to combine good golf, good fun and good food in support of a great cause. We are again limiting the event to 144 golfers, so we encourage our friends and supporters to register now.” 

Golfers can register online at www.helpaveteran.org.  The cost, which includes 18 holes of golf and a barbeque dinner, is $500 per foursome or $125 for an individual golfer.  A limited number of dinner-only reservations are available for $50.  Hole sponsorships and opportunities to donate raffle items or purchase raffle tickets are also available.  For additional information, please contact MSHV Executive Director Pamela Kostecki at 630-871-VETS (8387)
or via email at pam@mshv.org.
