The Food Pantry Golf Outing started in 2006 by a group of local residents who wanted to get one last round of golf in as the summer ended. We thought, "Why not raise some money for a local charity?". That first year, with 24 golfers, we raised $1800 for the Algonquin-Lake in the Hills Interfaith Food Pantry. In 2010 we grew to 60 golfers and raised over $8000. Since its inception, the outing has donated over $25,000. We are also pleased with our fundraising efficiency, which allows 100% of the monetary donations we receive to go directly to the Food Pantry. Our vision is to establish the golf outing as a self-sustaining event that will provide support to the Algonquin Lake in The Hills Interfaith Food Pantry for years to come. We are asking for your help in realizing that vision. The format is a "5 Hole Random Best Ball". Everybody in the foursome plays their own ball to completion (picking up at 10 strokes). The best score for the hole becomes the foursome's score. Scores are reported after the round. 5 holes are picked at random. Best score for those five holes becomes the outing champions. In case of ties, additional holes will be selected one at a time, until a winner is determined. If tied after 18, then co-champions will be announced, and prizes will be awarded at a later date.
