June 1

Golf for the Cure: The Chicagoland Area Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure will host its first "Golf for the Cure" event Monday, June 1, at Boulder Ridge Country Club, 350 Boulder Drive in Lake in the Hills. The event is projected to raise $100,000 in the fight against breast cancer.

Cost is $250 and includes 18 holes of golf with a cart, lunch, beverage cart service, VIP networking dinner with two-hour open bar, and live and silent auctions. Cost for dinner only is $60. Registration starts at 10:30 a.m., with shotgun start at noon.

Seventy-five percent of the funds will stay in the Chicago area community and 25 percent will go to Susan G. Komen for the Cure headquarters toward national research. "Golf for the Cure" is designed to provide supporters with the opportunity to join forces in the fight against breast cancer in an interactive, team environment.

The Chicagoland area affiliate was established in 1997, with the first Komen Chicago Race for the Cure held that same year. With the support of the signature fundraiser, Race for the Cure, the affiliate has awarded grants totaling more than $7 million locally toward the fight against breast cancer by funding grassroots breast health education, screening and treatment programs.

Grants are awarded each year to hospitals and community organizations that provide innovative outreach and awareness programs for medically underserved people in the greater Chicago area.

July 10

Teresa Schueneman Memorial Golf Outing: On Friday, July 10, CPS Inc. will be sponsoring the fifth annual Teresa Schueneman Memorial Golf Outing. Over the past five years, the outing has nearly doubled in size and last year's donation was the largest yet. Over the past three years, they have sponsored organizations that provide support for breast cancer victims. This year, they have chosen the Breast Cancer Network of Strength (formerly the Y-ME) as the charity. The Breast Cancer Network of Strength, founded in 1978, is a resource for breast cancer information and services, all provided completely free.

In 2006, CPS lost Teresa Schueneman to breast cancer. At that time they decided the CPS Charity Golf Outing would be known as the Teresa Schueneman Memorial Open. It would support organizations whose purpose was to provide support for women diagnosed with this terrible disease.

After golf, join a complimentary lunch, drinks and post-golf activities that include a raffle and auction. The event will again take place at the Links at Carillon, 21200 S. Carillon Drive, just off I-55 and Weber Road in Plainfield.

Cost is $100 per golfer if paid before June 1 or $110 after. This includes lunch, drinks (after golf), gift bag and event T-shirt. Make checks payable to CPS Inc. Registration will take place the day of the event from 8 to 8:40 a.m. The event will begin with a 9 a.m. shotgun start. For details, visit www.cpscharitygolfouting.com.
