In the past 22 years, the annual Tee Up for Hospice golf tournament has raised more than $220,000 to support hospice services. Proceeds of the annual golf benefit help support hospice services provided by Fairview Lakes HomeCaring & Hospice and Camp Triumph, a weekend camp for grieving children.

Corporate sponsors of this year's event, held Aug. 16 at Chisago Lakes Golf Course, included Plastic Products Company and Zinpro. Major sponsors included Wally Carlson & Sons BP, Fairview Sports and Orthopedic Care/Fairview Lakes Medical Center. Many other businesses sponsor holes, events and donate prizes.
