POLAR BEAR PLUNGE

SUNDAY, JANUARY 30

Take the plunge! Many McConnell Golf locations will take part in Save the Polar Bear Plunge benefitting the World Wildlife Fund (WWF), whose mission is to conserve nature and reduce the most pressing threats to the diversity of life on Earth. For us, this jump will be a direct link to protecting the Arctic and the polar bear population by restoring the loss of sea ice habitat.

The Water's Edge will be using ice buckets verses the pool. Members are invited to sponsor participating staff to raise money for the World Wildlife Fund. Minimum donation of $15. We will have T-shirts for sale and offer chili and hot chocolate! Pre-order a pint of chili to take home with proceeds supporting WWF and the Polar Bear mission as well!

HEART HEALTHY MONTH IN FEBRUARY

Eat healthy, be heart healthy and improve your overall health! As part of McConnell Golf's company-wide initiative during the month of February, your club's culinary team will be offering a Heart Healthy Meal Package set to Feed 2, 4, 6 or 8 people. With the purchase of each meal kit, a portion of proceeds will go directly to the American Heart Association. The meal kit will include two (2) 6-ounce filets of True North Salmon, 6 ounces of Blanched Haricot Verts, 6-ounce Blanched Red Bliss Potatoes and 1 ounce Lemon Herb Compound Butter.
