Smaller Indiana

Making people and ideas findable

As we get ready to celebrate our country's Independence Day, it's important to remember how we got that independence, and thank those who've helped keep us free.

I volunteer for a local not-for-profit called Veterans of Valor. It was started in 2007, by a Marine who was shot in the face, at point-blank range, in Falujah, Iraq while protecting our freedom. After his recovery, he started the organization with the sole purpose of helping veterans and their families recover from both physical injuries and mental distress, such as post traumatic stress syndrome.

Wednesday, July 29, they will be holding their 2nd Annual Golf Outing at Hickory Stick Golf Club, to raise money to support the program. This is one of their biggest fund raising events of the year. 97 cents out of every dollar goes straight to the program to help veterans, and we need 150 golfers to hit our fund raising goal! As a 501 C 3 organization, any donation is 100% tax deductible.

As a friend and fellow golfer, I thought you may be interested in putting together a foursome to play in this outing, and help a GREAT cause! Attached is a flyer that has more details. There will be prizes for 1st and 2nd place, as well as putting and driving contests, and even a $25,000 hole in one competition! There are also sponsorship opportunities available, if you or someone you know would be interested in helping more.

A few things to consider before joining Smaller Indiana:
1. Please use your real name (first and last) when you sign up, or we cannot open your account

2. Please do not use logos or commercial images for your profile photo

3. Events should be posted in the events calendar

4. You can post pretty much anything you want on your own personal page (self promotion, etc), and you can change the style of your personal profile page to reflect your corporate identification if you so choose.

5. Please keep all comments civil and polite. It's OK to feel strongly about a subject, and it's OK to be critical of ideas, but please refrain from personal attacks of any kind.

If you witness or experience any issues, please contact admin@smallerindiana.com and we will look into the matter.

6. "Blatant self-promotion" is discouraged on SI, and "spam" is not welcome. Please be considerate of your fellow members.
