5th Annual Michigan Golf Outing Recap

  • Jul 8
  • 2 min read

On Sunday, June 14 the Foundation returned to Fox Hills Golf & Banquet Center in Plymouth, Michigan for the 5th time in honor of Drew. While the golf was cut short by the rain, it didn’t dampen the spirit of the day with everyone sticking around for our usual post-golf banquet and awards. People visited, caught up, and even some card games broke out during the weather delay in what proved another meaningful and successful day for the Foundation. Photos from the outing can be found here.


The Foundation would like to profoundly thank all of the volunteers who make this event happen each year. While preparation ramps up in the spring and early summer, this outing is a year-round effort for many. We’d especially like to thank Julie Walkley and the entire Walkley family who are at the center of everything the Foundation does in the state of Michigan. We’d also like to thank the staff at Fox Hills who have been wonderful to work with over these last five years.


Thank you to all of our sponsors whose support allows us to expand and further our mission. A special thank you to our Presenting Sponsors: Great Rooms Designers & Builders, Yeti, Frogger Golf, the Wolski Family, the Trzcinski Family, Amsted Rail, BDO, FerroWorks, Randy Wise Buick-GMC, and Ahearn Signs. Your support has propelled the Foundation to some important fundraising milestones as we support the research efforts at Levine Children’s in the fight against Ewing’s sarcoma.


And finally, thank you to all of you! Despite the forecast, we once again packed the three Fox Classic courses with almost 200 golfers and filled the banquet hall at the Golden Fox. Every time we return to Michigan we’re struck by not just the sustained but the ever-growing support for the Foundation. We’re incredibly grateful, and we can’t wait to come back home next year!


Lastly, we’d like to announce some dates of our next few outings:


  • 2nd Texas Golf Outing - September 28, 2026

  • 5th California Golf Outing - Spring 2027

  • 6th Annual Michigan Golf Outing - June 13, 2027


We’ll keep everyone posted on the latest for these events as they move closer. See you in Forth Worth!
