Participating bars and restaurants designed and built their own miniature golf holes and provided anything from pulled pork sandwiches to chips and dip. Hole prizes were awarded to golfers who got a “hole in one.” Last year, over 2,300 golfers from Omaha and Lincoln showed up despite the chill in the air.
Over 355 teams and 29 bars participated in Lincoln. K&Z Distributing along with 104.1 The Blaze helped promote and sponsor this great event. Participants and bars alike love this event. “The Barstool draws a larger crowd than most game days for our bar, which in Nebraska is a pretty big deal,” says Nate Jackson of The Brass Rail in Lincoln.
Over 225 teams and 14 bars participated in the event which took place Saturday of March 7th in the Old Market of Downtown Omaha, Nebraska. Q98.5FM and Miller Brands Omaha helped sponsor the event. “We get to hang out with friends, meet new people but it’s really about Cerebral Palsy.” Barstool Open golfer, Nate Schumacher said. Even though it was a cold and rainy day, it did not stop participants from dressing as characters such as Captain Crunch and Strawberry Shortcake.
The money raised from the Barstool Open supports the Client Assistance Grant Program which in turn helps support things such as housing modifications, special needs camps, and new wheelchairs. The money also helps support a program called Tech Tots/Tech Tools. Tech Tots/Tech Tools is a toy lending library for children with disabilities. There are currently 5 toy lending libraries throughout Nebraska. UCP of Nebraska would like to thank all 43 participating bars in the Lincoln and Omaha area. We would also like to thank all 2,300 golfers for helping us more than surpass our goal.
Special Thanks to all of our 2009 sponsors!
