Son Jason, and grandson Charlie will play 100 holes as a team and drag Papa (me) along to help. Our grandson is 11 now (our picture is from last year - he's 6 inches taller now) and is a member of Youth On Course supported by the CDGA Foundation. He played with us last year and is looking forward to this year and helping the program that benefits him.
Please consider supporting Team Davenport. Your pledge of $1.00 per hole, or more, helps fund not only YOC so kids can play for no more than $5.00 per round, but our work with veterans rehab programs using golf. In addition, the Foundation works with roughly 1,200 challenged individuals at 95 camps to have fun playing the game and building self-esteem.
Thank you!
Denny Davenport, CDGA Foundtion Ambassador
The CDGA Foundation Golf Marathon has been an integral part of the CDGA Foundation’s fundraising efforts, raising over $750,000 in its previous ten years. Funds raised go directly towards CDGA Foundation programming, which utilizes the game of golf to enhance the lives of individuals with special needs, veterans and youth.
FORMAT
Participating golfers spend the time leading up to the event collecting pledges from family, friends and business associates. The CDGA Foundation provides participants with tools to achieve a $2,500 fundraising goal. Then, on Saturday, May 18 at Zigfield Troy Golf in Woodridge, golfers will play 100 par-3 holes in a fun and quick fashion. Lastly, individuals who reach the $2,500 fundraising goal will be invited to a year-end party featuring golf and two meals at a private country club.
