(10-13-22) The Joint Township District Hospital Foundation held it’s 30th Annual Golf Classic at Arrowhead Golf Course in Minster on September 9th.
Julie Jacobs, Executive Director of the JTD Hospital Foundation
“It was an amazing day to celebrate a milestone of 30 years hosting this golf classic. We appreciate the support of our local businesses, donors, golfers and volunteers, that make this event successful every year.”
The 30th anniversary outing opened with the annual golf ball drop. Golfers watched as Schmiesing Tree Service of New Bremen dropped over 1,000 golf balls to see which ball was the closest to the hole. The winner took home over $2,800 in the 50/50 split. Thank you to Schmiesing Tree Service for the “lift” for this event!
A shotgun start at 9:30 a.m. saw 144 golfers begin the 18-hole scramble. Golfers enjoyed their day with snacks and beverages on the course and a selection of heavy hors d’oeuvres, with cookies from The Cottage Shops, at the end of the event.
