Golfing "FORE" A Great Cause

Brookfield Academy's 15th annual golf outing, now known as the  Davis-Law Memorial Golf Outing, is on Monday, August 22 at Chenequa Country Club. If you've played the outing before, you know it is a fun-filled day of golf and camaraderie with Academy parents, alumni, faculty and other friends.

What you might not be aware of is that the golf outing is also a fundraiser and that all proceeds from the event support Brookfield Academy's Five Stars to Success scholarship program.

The Five Stars to Success scholarship program was established to provide academically qualified but financially disadvantaged students from Milwaukee’s central city the opportunity to attend Brookfield Academy’s Upper School. Over the past five years the golf outing has contributed over $85,000 to the scholarship fund.

Since its inception in 2002, 11 students have graduated from the Five Stars program and all 11 went on to college. This year, the first two Five Star students graduated with honors from their respective colleges. There are eight students attending Brookfield Academy as result of the program and your support will help ensure that they are provided the opportunity to create a future of limitless potential.

The Davis-Law Memorial is a scramble event so you do not have to be the world's best golfer to participate. And if you don't know a bogie from a birdie, skip the golf and join the fun that starts at 5:00 p.m. with the cocktail reception, auction and raffle, delicious dinner, and more.

Registration is fast, easy, and secure at http://www.brookfieldacademy.org/
There are many sponsorship opportunities available and these may also be made online. For more information, please contact Brookfield Academy's Development Office at 262-783-3200.

Hope to see you at Chenequa on August 22!
