Cardinal Center Gives Golfers Chance To Swing For $1 Million
July 28, 2016 at 4:25 p.m.
Forget trying to win $1 million on a reality game show.
Go the easier route - where eating worms and bugs isn't required.
Take a swing for a million dollars in the Fifth Annual Cardinal Center Million Dollar Hole In One Golf Shoot Out.
This year, the qualifying rounds are July 12-13 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Golf course locations include Little Bighorn, Pierceton; South Shore, Syracuse; Swan Lake, Plymouth; Sprig-O-Mint, Bremen; and Raccoon Run, Warsaw. The finals will be held July 27 at 4 p.m. at Stonehenge Golf Course.
R.R. Donnelley & Sons Co. is again the premier sponsor of the golf shoot-out. The shoot-out is a closest-to-the-pin competition benefiting Cardinal Center Inc.
Cardinal Center is a not-for-profit human service organization that provides services for people with disabilities in Kosciusko, Marshall, Cass and Fulton counties and for children with needs in Kosciusko County.
Proceeds from the event will be used for the Cardinal Center endowment to meet the following long-term needs: services for adults with disabilities; Healthy Families; Head Start; Women, Infants and Children; Sus Amigos; and First Steps.
In the competition, a specialized green area is set up on a driving range with the pin 90 yards from the tee. Participants compete by paying $1 for each golf ball they hit on July 12-13 for qualification in the finals. The event is open to the public.
The top five finalists from each site are determined based on the "closest to the pin" or "aces" during qualifications. Five finalists from each of the sites will advance to the finals at Stonehenge, Warsaw, July 27, to compete for the $1 million prize. During finals, each golfer tries to hit one ball at the 125-yard hole. Any finalists making a hole in one in the finals July 27 will share equally with Cardinal Center Inc. The golfer will receive $500,000 and Cardinal Center will receive the other half-million dollars. The money will be paid out over 30 years.
In addition, other prizes will be awarded for hitting a hole in one on a jackpot hole or being a top 10 finalist.
Besides Donnelley as the premier sponsor, other sponsors of the shoot-out include platinum sponsors Biomet Foundation and Paragon Medical; gold sponsors Crowe Chizek, GTP Financial, Lake City Bank, Medtronic Sofamor Danek, NIPSCO, Pill Box Pharmacies and Zimmer Inc.; silver sponsors Chore Time-Brock, Todd and Jan Dawson, 1st Source Bank, Flexsteel Industries, Frazzetta Financial Services, Symmetry Medical Inc. and Time Services Inc.; other sponsors are Hall and Marose, Dalton Corp., Kuert Concrete Inc., Lake City Enterprises, Lucas Realtors GMAC, Meyer Levin & Sons Inc., National City Bank, Paddleboy Designs LLC and Teghtmeyer Ace Hardware.
