Moline, IL - Golfers can sign up for the Jim Victor Junior Achievement Golf Classic to benefit Junior Achievement of the Heartland on May 2, 2011. Tournament play will take place at two beautiful courses: TPC Deere Run and Davenport Country Club. The event includes a 4-person best ball format, box lunch, player gift and Player's Reception. Check-in and warm-up begins at 11:00 am, tee time is Noon.  

The Player's Reception will be held at Davenport Country Club at 5:30 pm, following the day of golf. Participants will enjoy appetizers and a cash bar while bidding on wonderful live and silent auction items.

Golfers can register online by contacting Leslie Corlett at 309-277-3919, leslie.corlett@ja.org. Cost to participate is $250 per golfer. If golf is not your game, you can still support area youth by participating as a Spirit Golfer. Spirit Golfers receive the same amenities as the golfers without having to hit the course ($50 registration fee).

Proceeds from the event will support Junior Achievement programs offered in area schools. JA empowers young people to own their future economic success by providing programs that focus on work readiness, financial literacy, and entrepreneurship. More than 56,000 K-12 grade students in JA of the Heartland's 24-county area will benefit from programs this school year.

Thank you to our sponsors for their support of this event. The title sponsor is Jim Victor with Morgan Stanley Smith Barney. The course sponsors are DHCU Community Credit Union and HNI Corporation.
