Wisconsin Athletic Directors Association (WADA)

WADA to sponsor 21st annual Golf Outing
Event is July 19 in Wisconsin Rapids

By Mike Bates

Information Coordinator, WADA

You’re invited!

That’s right, all athletic directors, school administrators, coaches,
sports officials, and sponsors/vendors – whether currently active in that role
or retired – are invited to participate in the 21st annual WADA Golf Outing.
It will be held Tuesday, July 19, at the Ridges Golf Course in Wisconsin Rapids, a central Wisconsin location which the course owners call “The Hidden Treasure.”

There’s probably no better place to be on a warm, beautiful summer day than on a golf course. Come on, now. Would you rather be in a building, or outside?

Think of it:

Outside, where the cool breeze is blowing through your hair – or your hat, if you’re like me and have very little hair.

Outside, where the crisp fresh air reminds you of a well-deserved vacation – which everyone certainly needs.

Outside, where there’s no jingle of an office telephone – which everyone loves.

Outside, where there’s the feel of soft sand beneath your feet – oh wait, maybe not, not while you’re golfing, at least.

Entry forms are now available on the WADA web site at www.wadawi,org, and the event can accommodate 144 golfers in the scramble format. Registration is $75, and that includes a cart, for the rain-or-shine event.

Ridges Golf Course, Wisconsin Rapids, site of the WADA Golf Outing on July 19.

On-site games, included with the registration fee, are Mulligans, Special Holes, and
Skins Game. Prizes will be awarded.

The time schedule:

11:00 a.m. – WADA meeting & lunch.

12 noon – Golf, shotgun start.

5:45 p.m. – Pig Roast Dinner, followed by awards and prizes.

Reservations are accepted on a first-come basis, and Tee Assignments are made in the
order in which registrations are received. The advance registration closing date is July 10, and
on-site registration is $85.

Questions regarding the golf outing should be directed to Bill Vickroy, athletic director
at Lincoln High School in Wisconsin Rapids and WADA vice president, at telephone
(715) 422-7179 or via e-mail at Bill.Vickroy@wrps.org.

In conjunction to the golf outing, there will be Leadership Training Courses plus the
CAA Exam in Wisconsin Rapids on the morning of the golf outing. Those details will also be
on the WADA website.

Mark your calendar with the date: Tuesday, July 19.
Sync your PDA with the driving directions to The Ridges Golf Course in Wisconsin Rapids.

Remember to change your answering machine, to say that you will be “gone.”

And plan to enjoy a great lunch, a fun round of golf, a fantastic dinner, and maybe return home with a nice prize… all at the 21st annual WADA Golf Outing on July 19 in Wisconsin Rapids.
