Daily Nonpareil Online > Archives > News > Deaf Missions benefit set to swing
Deaf Missions will hold its third annual Golf Challenge Friday, June 4, at Council Bluffs Country Club, 4500 Piute St.
Registration, warm-up and lunch will begin at 11 a.m., with a shotgun start at 1 p.m. The day will conclude with a dinner and awards program at 5:30 p.m.
Rod Roberts, a five-term state representative and candidate the Republican gubernatorial bid, will serve as honorary chairman. Others serving on the committee include: Duane King, Mick and Judy Guttau, Marlyn McClain, Mike and Stacy Morgan, Todd and Deb Gordon, John and Jody Bethards, Pete Seiler and Chad Entinger.
Thie event will introduce the ministry of Deaf Missions to new friends and gain significant funding for the mission. The goal is to raise $100,000 so Deaf Missions may continue with the project of translating the Old Testament of the Bible into American Sign Language. Translation of the New Testament was completed in 2004.
Golfers pay no entry fee. Instead, each golfer will send out letters to 50 people (family members, colleagues, friends) asking them to sponsor him or her on a “flat pledge” or “per hole” basis.
There will be opportunities for participants to win “hole-in-one” prizes, including an RV from Leach Camper Sales. There will also be prizes for the top fundraising team, lowest score, closest to the pin, longest drive and other contests.
Different levels of corporate sponsorships and promotion opportunities are also available. Master’s Financial Group of Council Bluffs is a Gold Sponsor for the event.
