The Kiwanis Club of Colonial Plymouth is preparing for their largest annual fundraiser, the 30th Annual Charity Golf Outing, to be held on Thursday, August 9, 2012, at the fabulous Fox Classic Golf Course at Fox Hills Golf & Banquet Center, 8768 N. Territorial Road, Plymouth, MI. The event begins at 8:00am with a pre-golf breakfast and Shot Gun Start at 9:00am. Please contact Dan Herriman, Golf Outing Chair, (734) 459-5440 or email dherriman@herriman.net for more information on the outing, sponsorships and registration.
It is not your “everyday” golf outing. It’s golf, music, food, contests, surprises between the holes, and an after-golf dinner program. The Charity Outing is open to the general public and the general public is encouraged to participate in this high spirited, entertaining golfing experience. The Outing will include a return to its past by celebrating with a BBQ Chicken & Ribs Dinner following 18 holes of golf, food and fun.
The event is a great way to have local businesses get their name in front of over 250 volunteers and golfers, with signs on the course, mention in the Keepsake Program and mention on the Club’s website. Most importantly, 100% of the proceeds go to help fund the on-going community service projects the club supports such as the Plymouth Salvation Army, Mott Children’s Hospital, Growth Works, First Step, YMCA of Plymouth, Plymouth's Tonquish Manor, Plymouth Council on Aging, Habitat for Humanity, United Way of Plymouth, Special Olympics, Plymouth Clothing Bank, Plymouth Canton Schools ... and many more.

The over 90 members of the Kiwanis Club of Colonial Plymouth, founded in 1967, take great pride in assisting our community in a number of programs, anything from building a wheelchair ramp for a resident’s home, to replacing a roof for a family in need, to hosting Plymouth’s annual Good Morning USA Parade on July 4th (perhaps you’ve seen it!). They rarely have to deny a request for assistance from the community and work regularly with many other community groups. The members of the Kiwanis Club of Colonial Plymouth are committed to serving and building a stronger community. It is only with the support of generous community friends that we can continue to build strong programs for young people, safe homes for residents in need and a strong community for all.

The Kiwanis Club of Colonial Plymouth continues to lead the way in Michigan with an organization called Kids Against Hunger. As a group they have assisted in the purchase and packaging of over 1,000,000 meals for food banks, disaster relief and malnourished areas throughout the world since getting involved in 2005. The goal is to have one school in each level (elementary, middle, high school) in each district nationwide package food one time a year. If this goal is achieved Kids Against Hunger can nearly wipe out death due to starvation internationally
