“Fore!” In its 15th year, the Kearney Camp Classic was a hit again this year!

On Friday, August 16, 52 golfers teed off in an 18-hole scramble, to support both Carol Joy Holling & Sullivan Hills Camps.

From longtime friends to new faces, everyone was happy to enjoy a hot but sunny day at Meadowlark Hills Golf Course in Kearney.

And, we all celebrated a first-time hole-in-one!

Dinner from Cunningham’s on the Lake was a great hit and was enjoyed by all.

Then again on Friday, September 20, the Carol Joy Holling Camp Classic at Ashland Golf Club, teed off to support Carol Joy Holling Camp.

128 golfers enjoyed an 18-hole scramble on a great early fall day.

We got to celebrate a hole-in-one at this golf outing too!

From Dilly Bars, to lunch from Round the Bend, and dinner from Parker’s, the day was full of food, fellowship, and comradery.

Each of these events help to support camp and strengthens our ability to impact the lives of campers and Summer Ministry Team members.

Between the two events, we raised $84,000! What a great gift for our ministry. Thank you!

Save the dates for next year, Friday, August 15 for the Kearney Camp Classic & Friday, September 19 for the Carol Joy Holling Camp Classic. We can’t wait to see you again!
