Nearly 100 supporters purchased tee times, which included gifts, awards and food in addition to green and cart fees. Guests were also entered into and participated in the longest-drive, closest-to-pin and long-putt contests, along with a Colts “Catch Like-A-Pro” experience, which included access to a 50/50 raffle, silent auction, and prizes.
Approximately $6,000 was raised as a result of the tournament, and all funds will go to help grant wishes to children battling life-threatening medical conditions in Indiana, like sixteen-year-old Bella of Carmel.
Diagnosed with Craniopharyngioma, Bella said she dreamed of visiting the Aulani Disney Resort in Hawaii with her family. Through Make-A-Wish Ohio, Kentucky and Indiana, Bella’s wish came true as she visited Hawaii in early June. Bella attended the event.
