17th Annual Drive For Health Benefit Golf Tournament

The Logan County Healthcare Foundation’s 17th annual Drive For Health benefit golf tournament was held Friday, June 4, 2010 at the Oakley Country Club. $9,000 was raised for the Logan County Healthcare Foundation. “The golf tournament is a fun event and we had a great day,” said Shawna Allison, Executive Director of The Logan County Healthcare Foundation.

  • This tournament would also not be possible without the help of volunteers who generously gave their time to help the Foundation,” Allison said. “I really appreciate my committee of Tim Hubert, Bob Kelly and Mark Watkins.  They do a great job and make my job easy.” The other volunteers that the foundation would like to thank include; Megan Stephenson, Misty Mildenberger, Melanie Sporer, Vicky Joseph, and Betty Hockersmith.  These people gave several hours of their valuable time and made this tournament a success.


    The Foundation would also like to thank Oakley Country Club for use of the facility and golf carts and Kevin Shaw for organizing golf carts for us to use during the tournament.  A special thanks to Oakley Motors for the use of their Mule Utility Vehicle.
