Description

This is a Dinner/glow in the dark golf event which is the only major fundraiser for our organization every year. 100% of the money we make at the event goes to our scholarship fund which we disperse to Children of families in need in the Des Plaines area to participate in Park District programming they would not otherwise be able to afford.

We help provide children the opportunity to participate in a team setting, the ability to learn new skills, a way to create and develop leadership qualities, as well as providing a means to gain much needed social skills - all of which will help them navigate their way through life as they grow into adulthood
