A golf outing fundraiser is set for Aug. 2 in Battle Creek but its benefits will go beyond the city.
According to a community announcement, the Whack For Warmth event will support Community Action of South Central Michigan’s Emergency Assistance Program. This program helps income-eligible households with heating costs and critical housing needs in Barry, Branch, Calhoun, Kalamazoo and St. Joseph counties.
The event will take place at Cedar Creek Golf Course at 14000 Renton Road. Registration begins at 7 a.m. with an 8 a.m. shotgun start. A $400 fee covers a four-person team, including an 18-hole game, cart, breakfast, lunch, drink tickets and prizes.

Registrations and sponsorships are due by July 25.
