The recent Veterans in Crisis Golf Outing at LochenHeath raised more than $300,000, marking a record milestone for this annual event. What began over five years ago as a small fundraising event, raising just $3,000, has now grown into a major community effort supporting local veterans in need. This year’s remarkable total underscores the power of community support and dedication to those who have served. “We are honored to have this golf outing fundraiser played at LochenHeath,” said Kevin O’Brien, General Manager. “The money raised during the tournament stays right here in our community to support local veterans in crisis.” Jim Sanborn, event chair, added, “We would like to thank everyone who came out to participate in the outing, and all those who continue to support our veterans—those who have so proudly served our country.” This fundraiser supports Veterans in Grand Traverse, Leelanau, Benzie, Kalkaska, Antrim, Manistee, Wexford, Missaukee, Roscommon, Otsego, Crawford, Charlevoix, Emmet and Cheboygan counties.
