We are very excited to report that our Inaugural Golf Tournament and our annual fundraising event at Bann's were both a huge success. We made $15,000+ on each event, which will allow a larger donation to the MN ALS Chapter, more scholarships and help ensure that build up our perpetual scholarship fund.
The golf tournament was a lot of fun for all. This was exactly what we needed to make this a successful inagural event that we can build on for many years to come. The weather and golf conditions were perfect, and the staff at MN National did an excellent job of hosting the tournament, providing the dinner and making sure everyone had a good time. Timmy Haus entertained everyone afterward and helped to make it a memorable occaision.
Thank you to all the staff at MN National & Banns, all the volunteers, sponsors, participants and the public for making both events a huge success and helping to fulfill Don's request to:

To date, we have raised over $140,000 and donated nearly $60,000 to ALS support, and over $30,000 in scholarships to McGregor High School graduates. We are also nearing our goal of a fund that will provide perpetual scholarships in Don's name (that means we'll always remember our friend Don. Our operating costs are only 3%, which covers basics for printing, mailing, website fees, etc. All labor required to manage this organization and all that we do is 100% volunteer.
