Grab your clubs and your Hawks pride – we’re swinging into the first Chicago Hawks fundraiser of the season! In this episode, we tee up all the details for the 2025 Chicago Hawks Golf Outing, happening Saturday, August 30 at Village Greens in Woodridge.

Join host Nick Skweres, Hockey Director Steve Poapst and board member Pete Bilecki as they break down the day’s schedule of events and how this event will help raise critical funds to offset rising ice costs and keep hockey more affordable for young players. From hockey-glove long drives to a Happy Gilmore 2 Putter raffle, this is one outing you won’t want to miss.

We also highlight:

• New this year: youth participation opportunities
• Creative sponsorship perks (including how families can earn dues credits)
• The can’t-miss raffle for an Odyssey Golf Happy Gilmore 2 commemorative putter
• On-course challenges – from long drives in hockey gloves to putting with a goalie stick

Whether you’re a seasoned golfer, a hockey parent, or just here for the Hawks camaraderie, this episode gives you every reason to join the fun, support the club, and help keep hockey affordable for over 700 players in our community.
