It's hard to believe but almost two years ago, our dear friend Michael Chappell passed away. An avid golfer, it makes sense we celebrate his life and keep his message and memory alive with a day on the greens, August 24th.

Two organizations will be honored that Mike was passionate about: The Spokane Riverkeeper, whom Mike represented while Director of the Gonzaga Environmental Law Clinic and The First Tee of the Inland Northwest who provide educational programs for kids which build character through the game of golf.

Not a golfer? No problem. This is a fun golf scramble (out of four shots, you always play from where the best shot lands) with some hole prizes and challenges. Younger golfers are encouraged. Sign up as foursome or individually – you just need one person who knows how to golf.

The cost of the golf tournament is $75 per person which includes; green fees, a shared golf cart, terrific t-prizes including a commemorative belt buckle, ball-markers, and a t-shirt, dinner and the reception.

You can pay your entry fee now HERE.

They'll have a list of those who pay at the event when you check in. You can also pay at the event by check or cash, but they still need you to RSVP as we have a limited number of tee times and we need to get an accurate account to Qualchan.
