Golfers receive a variety of gifts that have been donated by businesses and a raffle is held during the dinner. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner are provided as part of the participation fee. You would if you were playing at the Joliet Park Foundation's Moonlight Golf Outing. It would be that florescent sphere sailing into the sand trap or disappearing into the rough or, if you were really lucky, flying straight down the middle of the fairway. And, considering that golf is a sport meant to be played on lush greens with a brilliant white ball, adaptations to the game are not only required, but necessary.
Golfers wear glow necklaces so they can be seen by other groups.
Patti cautions that districts interested in hosting this type of event should take a good look at their courses and choose holes that don't offer obvious hazards like narrow or rough pathways or water. She also recommends providing a good map to the golfers because it will be very dark by the time the event ends. This year the foundation is helping to rehab the district's greenhouse and conservatory. Foundation board members also sell tickets for the four or five more expensive raffle prizes. They also help with soliciting hole sponsors for the event.
