Adopt-a-Soldier Platoon Golf Marathon

Did you know the average golfer walks 5.5 miles during one round of golf? Well, if you’ve ever played with me, you know that number can be much higher!

On June 23rd, I will be challenging myself to play 72 holes of golf, walking the entire 4 rounds without the use of a golf cart. That adds up to nearly the same distance as a marathon.

Why am I telling you all of this? I’d like to get you involved in the challenge, while supporting a worthy cause.

The Adopt-a-Soldier Platoon is an all-volunteer 501 (c (3) public charity that has been supporting our Troops since April 2003. Adopt-a-Soldier Platoon is constantly sending care packages downrange to our Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen and Marines. These packages let our brave Americans know we are thinking about them and that their sacrifices far from home are not in vain. Please check out their website: https://aasp.vet

According to Alan Krutchkoff of the AaSP:

“Adopt-a-Soldier Platoon (AaSP) has been affected by COVID-19 like everyone else.  In fact, like many charities, we had to cancel our big fundraiser for our Wounded Care Program (Salute to American Heroes) in 2020 due to COVID restrictions.  We typically raise over $100,000 at this venue the last 7 years.   Also, we have not been able to hold any large packing events for our Troops because the warehouse we use (thanks to Unilever) is on restriction.  We also couldn’t have any impact events at the warehouse as we typically do.  Unilever is currently a work from home environment.

We will be holding our Salute this year on October 21 and we hope to have 300 people attend (about 100 less than the Gala in 2019).  We will have tables of 8 instead of tables of 10 or 12 to keep people comfortable.”

I hope you will join me on this journey and consider pledging per hole.

For example, if you pledge $1.50 per hole and I am able to complete 72 holes, you would donate $108 to the Adopt-a-Solider Platoon.

Any donation, higher or lower, would be greatly appreciated and valuable to the charity.

*For those of you pledging $1.50 or more per hole, Equity 3 Real Estate invites you to join us on June 23, 2021 at 7:30pm for complimentary drinks at Hackensack Golf Club to celebrate the completion of the challenge.

*We have sold out of the $5 pledge, so anyone pledging $5+ per hole, will be invited at a later date for a round of golf.  All caddies, Golf Fees and Lunch included.  In addition you can join us for the cocktail party starting at 7:30pm.

The whole day is underwritten by Equity 3, LLC and myself.  100% of the funds donated go to AaSP.

I look forward to sharing this journey with you!
