30th Annual Ireland Legacy Golf Tournament
We are grateful to all who joined us at the 30th Annual Ireland Legacy Golf Tournament on May 2, 2022. The event supports services for adults with autism and is named in honor of the Ireland family and in memory of Kitty, Kathy, Bill Sr., Fay, and Mallie and Glenn Ireland. The Ireland family was instrumental in founding Glenwood 48 years ago to serve individuals with autism and behavioral health needs.
Glenwood began in 1974 as a service for children with autism. As those children grew into adults, there were no services available for them. Glenwood adapted and added adult services. The golf tournament began as a way to support them. When families got together 30 years ago to start the tournament, we’re sure they never imagined that it would raise over $2.4 million over the years. That goes a long way to help adults with autism develop independent living skills!
A big shout out to our Title Sponsor, King Acura, who has sponsored our tournament for over 15 years! We are lucky to have such faithful support in the community.
We are thrilled to announce that we reached our goal of raising $200,000! This was a record-setting year and we couldn’t have done it without the support of sponsors, teams, hole sponsors, and donors.
