Join us Monday, June 10, 2024, at the Legend at Bergamont, 699 Bergamont Blvd., in Oregon for the American Red Cross of Wisconsin Southwest Golf Event. This fun traditional golf event will include food and beverages, on-course games and contests, a silent auction and a post-golf heroes’ reception. The Southwest Golf Event was established to raise public awareness and celebrate local heroes and volunteers who carry out the mission of the Red Cross every day.

Do you know an “ordinary” person with extraordinary courage? Someone who has saved a life, helped a neighbor in need or made a difference in their community? The American Red Cross of Wisconsin is seeking nominations for its annual Southwest Golf Event Heroes Reception, honoring individuals who have made an impact in the lives of others through their bravery, dedication, and humanitarian service.
