The Rotary Club of Portage is thrilled to be hosting its annual golf outing on Friday August 15th, 2025. Due to last year's popularity, the event is again being held the legendary Presidential Brewing Company on Portage Rd.
If you think mini golf is too easy for a golf outing, you might want to think twice... this isn’t your everyday mini-golf excursion! Your local Portage Rotarians will introduce some creative, challenging, and fun obstacles throughout the 9-hole venture. Some holes might even be made easier with a small donation to Rotary Charities, so having some cash on hand might be a good idea!
The silent auction will feature a combination of gift baskets, gift cards, goods from local merchants, admission and/or discounts to local venues, and more!
Bring your lawn chairs along with your family and friends for a fun-filled day of mini-golf, hot dogs, water, raffle, and silent auction (delicious and legendary Presidential brews available for purchase). Whether you're a golf pro or just looking to have a good time, this event is perfect for all ages and skill levels.
