WVMF Annual Golf Outing at The Oaks Golf Course - Monday, July 15, 2024
Join us on Monday, July 15, 2024 at the beautiful Oaks Golf Course in Cottage Grove. The event will be a four-person scramble featuring hole-in-one prizes, a putting contest, our Hail Mary Ball Toss event, prize drawing, lunch and heavy hors d’oeuvres following golf. This will be a great opportunity to mingle with the state’s military, business and veteran leaders.
Registration opens at 9 AM and shot gun start at 11 AM. Proceeds from this year’s golf outing will support the Wisconsin Veterans Museum’s Oral History Program, which contains the personal stories and military experiences of Wisconsin-connected veterans of World War I to the present day. There are currently over 2,800 interviews in the collection. These interviews complement and extend the archival, library, and artifact collections of the museum. The staff look to preserve more of our veterans’ stories and share them online with hundreds of thousands of people, so we can continue to honor and preserve the legacy of our Wisconsin veterans.
Hope to see you out on the course for a great cause! Registration will open April of 2024.
