Join us for Prevent Blindness Iowa’s 23rd Annual A Shot in the Dark night golf outing. This unique event presents interesting challenges for all types of golfers and introduces them to the major disability of blindness as they test their skills at night.
The evening starts with registration, dinner, and music. Golf outing rules and golfing begin around dusk. The night is full of fun and laughter as foursomes make their way around the moonlit course with only flashlights and glow in the dark products. After golf, the clubhouse is the place for snacks, drinks, music and more fun. At the awards ceremony, high and low score teams are announced for each of the courses along with auction prize winners.
