Story

The MACC Fund is pleased to announce the inaugural playing of The Chicagoland Ringer on Monday April 26th 2021 at Bull Valley Golf Club!

The name The Ringer is symbolic of a child going through the unthinkable journey of battling cancer, and BEATING it. Upon the completion of a successful childhood cancer or blood disorder treatment protocol, children are given the chance to physically RING THE BELL, a bell which hangs from the wall in cancer institutes across the country, to signify they have BEAT their cancer or blood disorder. This monumental moment in a childs life was the inspiration for starting the Ringer.

The Ringer is a 100-holes of golf marathon (all players play 100 holes in a single day) event to raise significant dollars for childhood cancer and blood disorders research. Each participant is tasked with a lofty peer-to-peer fundraising goal as part of their participation. In just three short years, thanks to the efforts of our participants, the Wisconsin Ringer has raised $367,000 for research for childhood cancer and blood disorders! Now its time to do the same in Chicago!

Food, beverages, hand-warmers (if necessary), and a tee gift package of TaylorMade Golf products that rivals most events will be provided to our Ringers day of the event. If you'd like to become a VIP Ringer, sponsor a golfer, or purchase a sponsor package for the event, please contact Mike Bielawski at the MACC Fund at mbielawski@maccfund.org or at 414.339.3366. We look forward to April 26th, 2021 for the first playing of the Chicagoland Ringer!
