It was a cooler than normal morning on Saturday, June 10th, but that did not stop folks from coming out for a nine o’clock start at Falcon Ridge Golf Course in Stacy to play in Family Pathways Charity Golf Tournament.

With the support of “weather resilient” golfers, generous business sponsors and numerous prizes and product donors, Family Pathways was able to raise $10,195 for its local programs.

Lynn Kirk, who works in fundraising said, “The volunteers, staff and program recipients of Family Pathways are grateful for all the trust and support we receive from the community. We realize the number of daily requests from worthy organizations seeking funding can overwhelm businesses.

“That is why special recognition needs to go to our ‘Elite Eagle’ Sponsors: Stacy Lions Club, River Bank Wyoming, Grand Casino Hinckley and Lake State Federal Credit Union of North Branch, and our ‘Eagle’ sponsors: Horizon Bank of Pine City, Unity Bank of Rush City, Plastic Products Co. of Lindstrom, and The Jewel Box of Taylors Falls for their level of commitment to our programs,” Kirk continued.

Family Pathways is a non-profit organization that has been serving East Central Minnesota for 28 years. Programs include Food Pantries and Outreach Advocacy, Senior Services and Youth Services.
