Golf Outing

Yesterday was Ellie's schools Golf Outing. This outing is the only fund raiser for the whole year. You might know that Ellie is hard of hearing and has bilateral cochlear implants so that she can hear. Her school is Shawnee Park Oral Deaf Program. The school is part of the Grand Rapids Public schools. As you might know GRPS has had to make a lot of cuts. This Golf outing pays for someone from Kindermusik to come in and work with the children. It also pays for part of the playground keep up. (They have an awesome playground). Depending on the funds, it can also pay for much much more! Last year the Golf outing made $23,000. This is unbelievable to me. I can see how they do it now that I have been to the outing. They have so many people that support the school. This outing was so much fun. If you work for a charity or if your organization needs more money, consider doing a golf outing. I can show you how to run it. Thanks for everyone who worked there and supported the school.
