2025 BBB Educational Foundation Golf Outings

The Better Business Bureau Educational Foundation is hosting three golf outings in 2025. These events raise money for our free fraud prevention programs in the community, teaching thousands of students and seniors how to spot and avoid scams. Join us for a day of fun that raises money to help make our communities better.

What to Expect

A Lot of Fun

All three events are filled with games throughout the course. This includes the dice game, closest to the hole, longest drive, straightest drive, longest putt, $10,000 hole in one contest and the popular golf ball cannon (not available in Lansing due to course restrictions). Our team prides itself on helping you have a great day on the golf course.

Beautiful Courses

Discover three exceptional golf courses, each offering unique challenges and breathtaking scenery. From rolling fairways to pristine greens, these courses are tailored to delight golfers of all levels. They are all sure to provide an unforgettable experience.

A Great Cause

These events raise money to help our Educational Foundation provide free programs in the community. This includes speaking to area seniors and high school students on scams, and how to be wise consumers. The risk grows every year, and your support of these programs helps prevent people from losing money to fraud, and keeps the dollars here in the local community instead of in the pockets of criminals.

Join us for three fun-filled golf outings designed for players and sponsors alike! Each event features a shotgun start, lunch on the course, and a lively post-round reception with awards and amazing raffle prizes.
