A golf tournament aimed at supporting local children is set to take place, marking its seventh year of operation. Organized by Sole Reason, the 'Sneakers and Smiles' event invites community members to participate in a competitive yet charitable activity. This year’s tournament will occur on either June 27 or 28 at Cypress Ridge Golf Course in Topeka. The event not only offers an engaging day of sports but also raises awareness and funds for providing essential footwear to underprivileged children.
Two key figures behind this initiative, Jerry Hudgins and Jimmy Brough, recently appeared on Eye on Northeast Kansas to share details about the upcoming event. Participants can expect a four-person scramble format, allowing teams to enjoy both camaraderie and friendly competition. Registration costs $380 per team, which covers green fees, transportation, refreshments, and meals throughout the day.
Beyond the game itself, the tournament serves as a platform to highlight Sole Reason's mission. For years, the organization has dedicated itself to ensuring that children in need have access to proper shoes, promoting health and well-being. By participating in or supporting this event, individuals contribute directly to these efforts.
Participants and spectators alike are encouraged to learn more about how they can get involved with this meaningful cause. Through collaboration and generosity, the community comes together to make a lasting difference in the lives of young people.
As the tournament approaches, anticipation builds for another successful year of combining recreation with philanthropy. Those who join the event will experience firsthand the power of collective action in fostering positive change within their local community.
