Keep in Mind!
Eric Feltman Memorial - "Tee it Up For Eric"
It's almost impossible to believe that almost two and a half years have passed since we lost Eric Feltman, 23-year PGA Head Professional at Engineers CC, to pancreatic cancer. What isn't hard to believe is the success that Eric's family and friends, led by wife Julie Feltman and friend Dr. Len Stein, have had in conducting a premier golf event remembering Eric and benefiting pancreatic cancer research. The third annual "Tee it Up for Eric" Memorial Golf Outing will be played on Monday August 8th at Meadow Brook Club. Though the afternoon shotgun is sold out, there are still a few openings in the morning. Additionally, the Eric Feltman Memorial Foundation is still gathering fundraising items like foursomes at area clubs and lessons with PGA Professionals. Please click here (http://www.teeitupforeric.com) or contact Jeff Voorheis (jvoorheis@pgahq.com) for more information on how to get involved.
