Dogs For Vets Golf Scramble

CHURUBUSCO, Ind. (WFFT) - The 3rd Annual Dogs For Vets Golf Scramble fundraiser will happen Friday.

The event will be at Eel River Golf Course, 1265 N 950 E, Churubusco.

Each golfer receives 18 holes of golf, a cart, a raffle ticket, and dinner after golfing.

Registration will be from noon - 1 p.m.

The cost is $65 per golfer or $260 per team.

Golf will begin at 1 p.m. and run until 5 p.m.

At 5, there will be dinner and door prizes.

Contests and events for the golf outing include mulligans, door prizes (raffle), 50/50 drawing, longest drive, closest to the pin, a $10,000 hole-in-one opportunity, and dinner.

All proceeds will be donated to the Veteran's Service Division of Indiana Canine Assistant Network (ICAN).

ICAN Veteran's Service is a non-profit that provides trained service dogs to veterans suffering from service-related trauma.

The cost associated with preparing dogs to go to veterans is $12,500 per dog, and it is free for the veteran.

This fundraiser was organized by Kendall Stuckey, a Churubusco High School Junior.

Stuckey has raised enough to sponsor two dogs and has a goal of fully funding two more this year.

Stuckey said this money was raised by "baking cookies, selling hand-made dog toys, and organizing a yearly golf outing with community support."
