I had the opportunity to join Phil Callen, Bob Klas, Jr. and Ed Heil for the 2006 ProAct Golf Classic, held Monday at the Hastings Country Club in Hastings, Minnesota. ProAct is an Eagan-based non-profit that serves people with disabilities and is one of the benefitting charities of the Tapemark Charity Pro-Am.

The weather was perfect, the format was no-bogey scramble and the course was in beautiful condition. We managed to reach five-under-par, just a few strokes off the winning score of fifteen-under. This tournament was well-run and included a pre-round lunch, on-course contests (including hole-in-one contests on every par three), team photos, goodie bag, raffle, silent auction and buffet dinner afterwards. Thanks to Mr. Callen for the gracious invitation.
