Centennial Golf Outing Scheduled by University of Illinois at Chicago College of Dentistry

CHICAGO - May 10, 2013 - PRLog -- The 22nd annual University of Illinois at Chicago College of Dentistry Golf Outing, an event hosted by the College and the UIC Dental Alumni Association Board of Directors, will be held on Wednesday, Sept. 11, at Cog Hill Golf and Country Club, 12294 Archer Ave., Lemont, IL, 60439, (866) 264-4455. All UIC, Loyola University Chicago, and Northwestern University dental alumni, as well as alumni of other dental schools, friends, and spouses are invited.

         In honor of the College’s Centennial, the Golf Outing will take a slightly different form this year. For the first time in several years, the Golf Outing returns to Cog Hill, allowing alumni to shoot on one of the club’s several championship golf courses, including Dubsdread, home of the Western Open.

         In addition, the golf outing will end with an evening dinner, and trophies will be awarded.

         There will be a shotgun start, so that all golfers will be able to finish and have dinner at the same time. Tee times will begin at 1 p.m. with a shotgun start.

         Dr. King and Drs. Don Doyle, ’78; and Charles DiFranco, Loyola ’81, compose the Golf Outing Committee.

         The fun activity also has proven to be a networking opportunity, as more alumni from Loyola, Northwestern, and other dental schools have attended in recent years.

         Alumni who belong to special anniversary classes in 2013 or 2014, those classes whose graduation year ended in a “3,” “4,” “8,” or “9”, are encouraged to get together at the Golf Outing as part of their Reunion plans.

         The price for golf, a golf cart, and the dinner is $95. If requesting to shoot Dubsdread, the price is $195. For non-golfers wishing to attend, the price for the dinner alone is $40.

         Prizes also are given for golfing prowess and predictions.
