The Golf Classic
The Golf Classic has always attracted an enthusiastic group of golfers out for a
grand day of golf and a little round of philanthropy for a favorite charity. With the
addition of Bob Gilder's expertise and long drive challenge, the tourney 'kicked-up' a
notch. What self-respecting golfer wouldn't want to match his driving skills against a
professional, even though they mostly know the eventual outcome. A friendly little bet
is well worth the slim chance that maybe, just maybe, the heavens align and your
shot sails away.
Our major corporate sponsor this year is Greenberry Construction and our Hole Sponsors include
Columbia Concrete Sawing Co., Lassen RV, L&M Steel Fabrication & Machining, PLC Asset Management, Timber Supply Co., Wilbur-Ellis, and Wilson Ford, Chrysler, Dodge & Jeep.
Also, a number of great auction items will be available including OSU Baseball Memorabilia, OSU Football Memorabilia,
Bend Golf Vacation, Half a Steer...and more.
Included in the entry fee are 18 holes of golf in a scramble format for teams of four,
buffet BBQ, tee prizes, awards and team pictures with Bob. Hole-in-one contests for
cash and a chance to HIT THE DUCK assure a day of fun in the sun while
supporting Old Mill's extensive programs
for children and families, and, of course, bragging rights for life for those
who might actually out drive Bob! Registration forms will be mailed in
August and for more information, call Lisa Penter at 757-8068. Entry fee is $125 and a registration form can be downloaded here.
Fireside Recital Series...
Watch for flyers, newsletter notices and updated details here in November.
Old Mill Center for Children and Families
and the OSU Piano Program invite you to
become a part of one of the most
celebrated concert series in Corvallis.
For the past 19 years, the Fireside
Recital Series has provided an intimate
showcase for the musical genius of
locally acclaimed and internationally
celebrated artists. Next year's series will be
no exception.
We would like to thank last year's
sponsor Barnhisel, Willis, Barlow &
Stephens P.C., Attorneys at Law. We
also thank OSU Federal Credit Union for their generous support.
Space will be limited. Call 757-8068 to reserve your tickets.
Old Mill Center's Annual Auction...
The annual auction is Old Mill's largest fundraising event of the year and is critical for both program services and individual children's scholarships. In 2005, over $150,000 in gross revenues was raised by a lively, enthusiastic crowd of patrons. These funds allowed us to include more children that needed help, as well as expand programs and services, such as the ChildSafe and Strong Families Programs.
The evening includes both a silent and live auction with many returning favorites, especially the children's art. Exciting features include a 5-Day Irish Jaunt Grand Prize Drawing and drawings for other great prizes.. After browsing the extensive selection of silent auction items, a delicious Irish feast awaits, including complimentary beer and wine. The evening will culminate with the fast-paced live auction. From a week in a French cottage for for six to weekend getaways, rafting adventures and golf packages, to the real highlight of the evening, an opportunity to commit scholarship dollars for deserving children and families. The auction provides a worthy opportunity for good people to do good things.
For more information or to support the auction with a gift or to purchase auction and drawing tickets, please call Old Mill at 541-757-8068.
