Mount Prospect American Legion Post 525 Commander, Bill Starr, announced that Post 525 will hold its 6th annual golf outing on October 7, 2021 at the Mt. Prospect Golf Course. The event will be a two-person scramble, best ball, tournament with a shotgun start at 10am. Registrants will receive, among other things, 18 holes of golf with cart, entry into a prize raffle, lunch during the event and a dinner buffet at the 19th hole. For the fourth consecutive year, net proceeds of the outing will be donated to Veterans Path to Hope ("VPH") of Crystal Lake, formerly known as TLS Veterans. VPH is a 501(c) (3) non-profit organization whose mission is "to provide veterans in need and their families the services necessary to experience hope and achieve success." The group's main focus is vets who are homeless or at risk of becoming homeless. In addition to housing, VPH also provides food, clothing, counseling, job placement and a variety of other services aimed at fulfilling the organization's mission. Commander Starr noted that the VPH mission is one shared with The American Legion.
