⛳️ Help Us Celebrate 30 Years on the Green!

There’s still time to be part of the 30th Annual Good Shepherd Manor Golf Invitational on Monday, June 29 at the beautiful Ruffled Feathers Golf Club in Lemont, designed by renowned golf course architect Pete Dye.

Whether you're interested in golfing, sponsoring a hole, or purchasing raffle tickets, the deadline is Monday, June 22. Sponsorship opportunities start at just $200! Raffle tickets are just $10.

Just two years ago, we sold out the course, and we're hoping to do it again. We currently have 112 golfers registered and would love to fill every remaining spot.

This event supports a mission that is incredibly meaningful to the men, families, staff and the community. For more than 55 years, Good Shepherd Manor has provided compassionate care, opportunities in the community, and a home for men with intellectual and developmental disabilities. GSM is truly one of our community's hidden gems.

Let's make this 30th anniversary celebration our best one yet by filling the course and securing every sponsorship!
