In the event of bad weather, we will hold a light breakfast and get together with Dr. Jim Yong Kim. Golf registration and sponsorship purchases will then become a charitable donation to support mental health initiatives.
Your Support Matters
All proceeds will strengthen mental health care in Muscatine and Louisa Counties through funds established at the Community Foundation of Greater Muscatine.
​
