FUN: Par for the Course!

Usually I don’t pre-pay and register to make a fool of myself. I can do that for free.  But I’m considering it this time because it’s for a great cause.  With CGI’s annual Empower Golf Outing on the horizon (Friday morning, June 7, in case you’re wondering), I’m seriously considering digging out my 1976 vintage Patty Berg starter set. That alone is an act of faith!

Last year over $7,000 was raised in CGI’s inaugural golf outing at Winding River Golf Course. What a blessing! The day was picture perfect , too.  For me, hanging out with Aimee Davis, Whitney Vance, Kristi (Dormady) Monroy, and Vanessa Alexander made me feel 30 years younger. This year I expect CGI’s volunteer coordinator Kristen Baynai to continue the “fun” in this annual fundraiser. But what’s fun if we can’t share it?

So I’m challenging you who golf or who have golfed to come join us. The early bird registration (www.myCGIstory.com) ends Wednesday, May 1, if you’d like to save $10 on your entry fee. Or you can even register the day of the event if you’re a weather watcher. Plus as an extra bonus, you may even see an exciting four-some of retro golfers closing out the pack. Handicaps R-Us!
