On September 8, 2011, we get to do it all over again at the Spencer T. Olin Golf Course in Alton, Illinois, designed by Arnold Palmer. Join us by registering to golf or becoming a sponsor.

We appreciate 1st MidAmerica Credit Union's investment in our mission and commitment to community service.

Last year the icing on the cake was that agency staff could participate in the fun. Some golfed, and others drove hospitality carts, worked registration, 50/50 ticket sales, served refreshments and more.

"It was a rich experience for my employees and validated the work they do to help struggling young families in our community." said RHSFS president Chuck Parr in a letter to Don Reedy, president and CEO of the credit union.

Parr continued, "Your stamp of approval gave us something positive to talk about in the community, it raised awareness of our mission, and it positioned us as a charity worthy of support.

The special philanthropy inspired RHSFS to create its new Champion Circle. The giving level recognizes donors who hold fundraisers for the agency. Others in the Champion Circle include Ed and Patty Morrissey of Alton and Jeana Hutchinson of Alton.
