Register Today for the Foundation Golf Outing

The AASV Foundation is returning to Veenker Memorial Golf Club in Ames, Iowa for its 2017 Golf Outing fundraiser, scheduled for Thursday, August 24. It's time to register your team (or individuals) to golf in support of the AASV Foundation! Registrations are due August 7. The outing has already received strong support from sponsors, ensuring lots of contests, prizes, and giveaways -- not to mention plenty of food and beverages!

APC is providing lunches for the golfers, Zoetis is sponsoring the beverages, and Boehringer Ingelheim is supporting the pork dinner that concludes the event. In addition, several companies, including Aurora Pharmaceutical, Ceva Animal Health, GlobalVetLINK, Huvepharma, Insight Wealth Group, National Pork Producers Council, and Pharmgate Animal Health, are hosting contests, games, and giveaways at golf holes on the course.

The registration fee includes 18 holes of best-ball golf, cart, lunch, beverages, awards dinner, and prizes. Funds raised by the event support AASV Foundation programs such as swine externship grants for veterinary students, travel stipends for students attending the AASV annual meeting, research grants, tuition grants at the Swine Medicine Education Center, and more.

Golfer check-in begins at 11:00 AM on the 24th, with practice balls available for warming up on the driving range before the contest begins. A shotgun start at noon kicks off the four-person team, best-ball competition. Golfers compete as a foursome against the challenges of the course (and the other teams) in addition to participating in individual contests along the way. When the golfing is completed, team and individual contest winners will be recognized during a pork dinner. The event is expected to conclude by 6:00 pm.
