Taking a Swing at Cancer
August 27, 2026
The WDMH Foundation is pleased to
announce a $1,300 donation from the Iroquois Golf Club Ladies League in support
of the WDMH Cancer Care Fund.
The
funds were raised through the League's popular Lady and a Tramp tournament, a
day of golf, games, dinner, and lots of laughs. Gentleman volunteers also stepped
in to caddie for the ladies, adding to the fun.
Sponsored
by River Rat Treasures, the tournament brought golfers and supporters together
for a great cause. The winner of the 50/50 draw added to the day's generosity
by donating his winnings right back to the fundraiser.
"We
are so grateful to the Iroquois Golf Club Ladies League for choosing to keep
their fundraising dollars local," said Cindy Ault Peters, Executive
Director of the Foundation. "Cancer affects many families in our
community, and funds raised through events like this help ensure patients can
access care and support close to home."
The
WDMH Foundation extends sincere thanks to the Iroquois Golf Club Ladies League,
River Rat Treasures, the volunteer caddies, and everyone who helped make the tournament
a success. This tournament was a hole-in-one for local cancer care.
