Golf tournament benefits Aspirus Medford patients
The Aspirus Medford Foundation’s charitable golf tournament and fundraising event helped raise funds that will be used to heal people, promote health and strengthen the communities Aspirus Medford serves.
“Over $20,000 was raised,” said Brent Arndt, Aspirus Medford Foundation board and annual event chair. “Our major sponsors helped make that a reality, in addition to 26 golf teams, a dozen volunteers who assisted and over 100 businesses who contributed.”
