The weather was a bit warm, but that didn’t stop 136 golfers
from all over the State to get out and support the Wisconsin
Lions Foundation by participating in the 11th
Annual Birch-Sturm Golf Outing. The Outing was held on
Saturday, July 19th at Glacier Wood Golf Course
in Iola, Wisconsin and was a tremendous success, once again.
$13,000 was raised through registration fees, raffles, hole
sponsors, and hole events. There were 56 hole sponsors,
including a major sponsorship from Thrivent Financial for
Lutherans – Portage County Chapter.
The team from Merrill defended their title by winning again
this year. Team members were Tom Betchwars, Eric Belgram,
Tom Radloff and Andy Radloff. The Wisconsin Lions Foundation
Board of Directors would like to thank the golfers, hole
sponsors, and volunteers for taking part in the Outing this
year and for their continued support.
Mark your calendar for
next year’s Outing – July 18, 2009!
