Honoring Our Armed Forces

We honor, respect, remember and support all those who have served in our Armed Forces for this great nation. Our event encompasses two golf courses, hundreds of volunteers and a very grateful group of sponsors and donors. We provide golf in the morning for veterans from all over the state and who have served in several wars.

The money we raise supports local causes as well as national causes; Nationally- Hope for the Warriors, Military Order of the Purple Heart, Paws for the Purple Hearts and Operation Give a Hug Locally- Bob Michel VA Clinic, ICC Educational Foundation The Gen Wayne Downing Scholarship, IL Military Family relief Fund and The Vet Foundation of IL.

The golf event is the culmination of efforts throughout the year by committed volunteers giving back to the veterans who do so much for us.
