Shotgun start at 8:00 am with tons of prizes and lunch to follow. Don’t forget to bring your yellow tickets you received when buying your mulligan’s for the prize drawings.

Do your legs ache after walking a short distance? If so, you may want to consider being screened for peripheral arterial disease (PAD), a condition in which the arteries that carry blood to the arms or legs become narrowed or clogged by plaque, slowing or stopping the flow of blood. Get screened on September 15th when Life Line Screening comes to SUMC and offers this and other important health tests. Call 1-888-653-6441, or visit www.lifelinescreening.com, for more information and to pre-register.
