O&P ASSISTANCE FUND'S FALL 2002 GOLF CLASSIC AT RUFFLED FEATHERS GOLF CLUB
Alexandria, Virginia-Join the Orthotic and Prosthetic Assistance Fund at
Ruffled Feathers Golf Club in Lemont, IL on Wednesday, October 9, 2002, for
OPAF's Fall 2002 Golf Classic. This event, like the OPAF Silent Auction,
supports OPAF's ongoing programs and primary mission to enable individuals
with physical disabilities-especially those served by members of the
orthotics and prosthetics community-to enjoy the rewards of personal
achievement, physical fitness, and social interaction.
The Golf Classic is a fantastic opportunity to play a round of golf at one
of the best courses Chicago has to offer, network with old and new friends,
and help raise funds for OPAF.
Registration for the Golf Classic is $150.00; this fee includes green fees,
cart fees, range balls, bag drop service, personalized golf carts, lunch,
and two drink tickets. To register, please visit
<URL Redacted>. Transportation to the course
will depart Hyatt Regency Chicago at 7:00 am sharp. Shotgun start is at
9:00 am.
No refunds will be made for cancellations of individual registration (the
administrative portion paid to Ruffled Feathers, $110.00) after September
23, 2002.
If you are not a golfer, your organization can still join in on the fun.
Sign your organization up to be an official OPAF Golf Classic sponsor!
Sponsorship opportunities are available for a specialty and standard holes,
lunch and beverage carts, transportation, and goodie bags. For details on
sponsorships, please visit www.opfund.org/support/index.html.
Ruffled Feathers, named the #1 Best New Golf Course in America by Golf
Digest, was designed by Pete Dye and his son P.B. Dye. This wonderfully
mastered 18-hole course features sculpted fairways, beautifully framed and
contoured greens and a Dye-signature island highlights the 11th hole.
Advantageously placed on 175 acres of rolling terrain and natural wetlands,
this Ruffled Feathers provides the feel of a World Class course. For
directions, please contact Tamara Bibby at 571.431.0831 or Ruffled Feathers
at 630.257.1000.
The Orthotic and Prosthetic Assistance Fund is a nonprofit organization, a
501(c)(3) public charity, established in 1995 by the Orthotic and Prosthetic
National Office. Dedicated initially to providing financial and in-kind
support to the 1996 Paralympics, the Fund now generates its own initiatives
through partnerships with individuals, organizations and institutions
engaged in raising public awareness of disability and improving the quality
of rehabilitation medicine, science and technology.
The Fund aims primarily to enable individuals with physical
disabilities-especially those served by members of the orthotics and
prosthetics community-to enjoy the rewards of personal achievement, physical
fitness, and social interaction.
