2nd Putt Putt Golf fundraiser announced

Submitted information

Putt Around Van Wert, an indoor Putt Putt Golf tournament, is back for its second year.  The event will take place February 1 when four-player teams compete for cash prizes for first-, second- and third-place finishes.

Players will travel to nine Van Wert businesses to play one hole of Putt Putt Golf at each location. Participating businesses and organizations are Fricker’s, Sears, Van Wert Bedrooms, Lee Kinstle GM Sales & Service, Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 5803, StateWide Ford, Kennedy-Kuhn, Elks Lodge 1197, and Black Swamp Bistro.

Each business/organization will create its own hole and anything goes.  Golfers will vote for their favorite hole and the winning business will receive a trophy.

Play will begin and end at Fricker’s this year.  Holes can be played anytime between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. with winners announced after all scores have been tallied. Cost is only $80 per team. Teams may sign up at any of the participating locations or email info@vwcclub.org with a team name and a list of members.

Proceeds from the fundraising event will go to local youth enrichment programs.  For more information, visit the Van Wert Community Club website at vwcclub.org or call Lei lonnee at 260.494.0335.
