Tee It Up for the Troops at The Club at Old Hawthorne: A Day of Golf, Gratitude, and Giving Back

Mark your calendars for June 30, 2025, as The Club at Old Hawthorne in Columbia, Missouri, hosts the annual Tee It Up for the Troops charity golf tournament. This event is more than just a day on the greens—it's a heartfelt tribute to our nation's heroes, combining the love of golf with a mission to support Veterans and their families.

Participants will enjoy a day filled with camaraderie, a patriotic ceremony honoring our military, and a lively auction—all aimed at raising funds for local and national veteran service organizations. Among the beneficiaries is Retrieving Freedom, Inc. (RFI), a non-profit dedicated to training Service Dogs for Veterans with disabilities and children with autism, provided at no cost to the clients.​teeitupforthetroops.org+3teeitupforthetroops.org+3teeitupforthetroops.org+3

Adding a personal touch to the event, RFI Veteran Client Ambassador Shanna, alongside her Service Dog, Davis, will share her inspiring journey. Their story exemplifies the profound impact that Service Dogs have on the lives of Veterans, offering not just assistance but a renewed sense of independence and hope.​

Whether you're an avid golfer, a supporter of our troops, or someone who appreciates a good cause, this event offers a unique opportunity to make a difference. Proceeds will support programs like RFI's, ensuring that more Veterans and children receive the life-changing support they deserve.​
