MRDD golf outing set for Sept. 28

Press release from the Butler County Board of Mental Retardation and Developmental Disabilities:

The Even the Score Golf Outing will take place Monday, September 29 at Weatherwax Golf Course in Middletown. The golf outing was an annual tradition for 12 years running. After a hiatus in 2007, the golf outing is back in full swing for the second year in a row.

Registration information is available on our web site, www.butlermrdd.org. The golf outing will kick-off with a Putt and Chip Contest for Special Olympic Athletes at 10:30 a.m. The contest will be the opening event of a day-long golf outing designed to raise recreational funds and awareness for individuals with mental retardation and developmental disabilities. Golfers playing in the outing will have an opportunity to see the Special Olympians compete before the shotgun start at 12:30 p.m. Dinner is also served.

The Arc of Butler County is sponsoring the Even the Score Golf Outing at the Weatherwax Golf Course in Middletown. The Arc is a non-profit human rights organization of family members and friends committed to improving opportunities for individuals of all ages with developmental disabilities. Proceeds from past golf outings have been used to organize and supervise recreation activities; subsidize transportation to activities, and provide seed money for new and innovative programs. Last year’s golf outing raised more than $9,000.
