The Second Annual Oscar Cowen Golf Outing is set for Saturday, Oct. 6 at 9 a.m. at the Hamlet Golf Course.

All proceeds benefit the Christina Rotering and Ashley Derrickson Memorial Fund for Starke County Cancer. This memorial fund was created in October 2011 and since its inception, seven Starke County cancer patients have been assisted. Funds were given to those who needed to purchase cancer treatment medications, transportation to and from doctor appointments and radiation and chemotherapy treatments. Money was given to a cancer patient last year for a housing deposit as he was living in his vehicle.

To participate in this year’s four-person team or to sponsor a hole, contact Oscar Cowen. The first 20 teams to pay will be able to compete on Oct. 6.
