tee it up at 1 p.m. Participants also will be offered breakfast, and
luncheon. An awards dinner will be held at 6 p.m.

Proceeds from this year’s outing will benefit Franciscan St.
Francis Health’s Neighborhood
Health Center, located near Garfield Park south
of Downtown Indianapolis. This family medicine-centered practice is designed for
families without access to affordable health care.
The
Neighborhood Health Center’s focus is to provide primary and preventive care as
well as health education. All services are rendered on a sliding fee scale.

financial integrity of their families.
Throughout the day, various products and
services – generously donated by local individuals and businesses – will be
auctioned.
