Finally, in addition to the new challenges Bearpath will pose, you’ll have the opportunity to “Beat the Pro,” testing your game against Brad Denton on the 13th hole. We are all very excited for the 5th year of our Summit Academy Golf Classic. Each year, planning for the tournament starts with a simple mission: to bring friends and supporters of Summit Academy OIC together for a great day of golf and giving in support of one of our community’s most important job- and lifeskills training agencies. After golf, we have an excellent program planned for the Champion’s Reception Dinner. Make sure to invite your spouse for food, fun and entertainment. We’ll wrap up silent auction bidding, then KFAN’s Jeff Dubay takes the podium to celebrate the day’s winners and most ‘notable’ performances. Jeff will then turn things over to our friend Karen Sorbo — Minnesota’s greatest auctioneer — who will present a limited number of This year, you are in for another world-class day of golf and entertainment: plan on coming early to see Paul Allen and Jeff Dubay from KFAN — or tune in to AM 1130 on the way to the tournament.

This year’s hot new items include a once-in-alifetime chance to play at Sutton Bay golf course with the father and son team of Larry and Gordon Hendrickson, a special Spalon Montage package including limo service, and a private Minnesota Vikings suite for you and your friends — so be sure to stick around! round tune-up at 9:45 on the range with Bearpath’s golf pros. After you’ve dropped your handicap and learned a thing or two, be sure to check out one of the game’s most amazing trick shot artists, Brad Denton, at 11:00. He can hit a golf ball further onehanded and blindfolded with his putter than most of us will today with our drivers. A barbeque lunch will be served along the driving range at 11:45, and then the fun really begins. I’d like to make special mention of Larry Hendrickson and the founding members of the golf committee. Five years ago, they had the idea that a day of golf could help raise awareness and money to support the staff, students and good work of Summit Academy. Today, this golf event helps to sustain and strengthen the programs Summit Academy offers to give its students a foundation for real success. On behalf of this year’s event committee, thank you for joining us today! We’ll take to our carts at 12:30 for the 1:00 shotgun start. To make sure you are fully hydrated and protected, Spalon Montage Cheers, will be providing spritzers and suntan lotion on the 6th hole. On the 10th hole, a team of massage therapists will make sure all the aches and pains are worked out so there are no excuses. You’ll get a shot at the ultimate gimme, driving home a 2008 Audi TT for Hubert “Buck” Humphrey Golf Committee Chair Our Mission We exist to assist individuals in developing their ability to earn and to become contributing citizens in their community.

Come play the second-oldest golf course on its original layout in the country (behind Shinnecock, in case you were wondering).
