“The Golf Marathon is hands down the best day on the MGACSF Calendar,” said the Manager of Caddie Scholarship Funds, Jackie Kielty. “There are several factors that make the Marathon incredible, such as, the tremendous grass roots fundraising and the resilient and excessive rounds of golf. But most importantly, it’s the sense of community between the players. It is an exciting mix of club members, directors, caddie managers, and alumni that all come together to bring the Marathon to life.”

The golfers raised over $227,000 dollars on Monday! The total will grow as the pledges are calculated and additional funds are collected. There is still time to donate to your favorite team or players HERE.
