Hantz Golf Club to host LCAN fundraiser Aug. 18

The inaugural golf outing for the Lenawee College Access Network (LCAN) will be hosted by the Hantz Golf Club in Tecumseh, on Monday, August 18. Proceeds from this event will support the mission of the LCAN. LCAN hopes by 2025 to have 60 percent of Lenawee County residents with a post-secondary degree and/or beneficial credential. The purpose is to dramatically increase the number of Lenawee students who pursue and complete two and four year college degrees, as well as, post-secondary credentialing, such as apprenticeships and military service. The network is comprised of volunteers from nonprofits, businesses, education, government, and organizations that support these goals. Post-secondary education is seen as essential to earning a living wage and building a thriving Lenawee County. Registration will begin at 12 p.m. with a shot-gun start at 1 p.m. A dinner buffet will follow along with awards and door prizes. The format is a four-person scramble. Teams are encouraged to get together and wear college colors/gear or gear representing each player’s post-secondary training. Trophies will be earned for most spirited team and golf prizes will be awarded. Non-golfers are welcome to attend the dinner, which includes eligibility for door prizes. The cost to golf is $100 per person and includes 18 holes of golf, a cart, and dinner. Dinner tickets without golf are $35, starting at 5:30 p.m. Corporate, business and individual sponsorships are available and range from $50 for a cart sponsorship to $300 for dinner sponsorships.
