The Kiwanis Club of Evanston golf tournament is back after a two-year absence. James Wolinski, president of the Club, announced the fundraiser will be held at the Wilmette Golf Club on Wednesday, July 20. Named for the late Bruce Goodman, a prominent Evanston businessman and avid golfer, the event has been a major fundraiser for Kiwanis, a 102-year-old institution in Evanston, helping children from pre-school through high school. The club has also made a $10,000 commitment to the new Robert Crown Center.
Wolinski noted that despite the pandemic, the Kiwanis Club has been able to continue contributions to some 30 organizations annually including Girls Play Sports, First Night Evanston and the Evanston Symphony Orchestra’s program for young people. In the summer, the members can be seen grilling hot dogs and providing food for the Evanston Community Picnic.
“We have a variety of sponsorship packages available for support plus a cash raffle that includes many gifts from supporting Evanston businesses and friends of Kiwanis,” Wolinski added.
