The golf outing is played as a handicap scramble. We would like golfers to register by August 16th. The outing includes a golfer gift, lunch, buffet style dinner, cart, and greens fees. This event is a blast and we have a great time with fun competitions such as longest putt, longest drive, hole-in-one, and two holes with prizes to win, including a car from Dave Knapp Ford Lincoln Mercury and a hole with $10,000 from Farmers State Bank. This is definitely a worthwhile event as you can enjoy a day of golf and your proceeds can give hope to 40% of Darke County residents including youth, seniors, those in crisis, and those seeking self-sufficiency.

Golfers, please help us make this our biggest outing yet. Thank you all for your support. We encourage both teams and individuals to sign-up. We will throw in a free gimme rope for those registered by August 16th. Mulligans, pink tees, and buy the pro’s shot are also available for purchase. Now more than ever the United Way needs your partnership. Let’s LIVE UNITED Darke County as we try to reach our goal of $360,000 this fall.
