The tournament will begin with a shotgun start at 1:00 pm sharp with lunch included, beginning at Noon. The tournament will be played in groups of four, each foursome costing $400. To sign up for a foursome or review information regarding sponsorship levels, you can visit their website or contact Ann E. Freeman at ann.freeman@avantax.com.
The Swing Against Cancer Golf Tournament will benefit American Cancer Society, Minnesota. For more than 100 years, the American Cancer Society has been leading the fight to end cancer. With your support, they have helped usher in an era where more people survive cancer than ever before. By translating, their research findings into action, they have seen a 20% decline in US cancer death rates since the early 1900s.
“This is our first event partnering with the American Cancer Society and we are eager to raise awareness and funds to support such an important nonprofit aiming to reduce the number of individuals affected by cancer," said Michael Kobs, Founder, Partner, and Senior Financial Advisor for MRK Financial Solutions. “With a personal journey battling this disease, I know firsthand how important partnerships and events like this are, and we look forward to seeing everyone out on the course.”
“Partners like MRK Financial Solutions unite communities to celebrate people who have battled cancer, remember loved ones lost, and provide an opportunity to take action for lifesaving change,” said Carolyn Sharratt, Associate Director of Development at American Cancer Society. “Dollars raised allow the American Cancer Society to help people facing the disease today, educate people about how to reduce their risk for cancer or detect it early when it’s the easiest to treat, and fund cancer research that will help protect future generations.”
Following the tournament, there will be a small ceremony held at the clubhouse to honor the 1st, 2nd and last place winners as well as honor the American Cancer Society through a check presentation.
