Chinook Golf Course 3rd Annual Community Dinner & Live Auction this Saturday

The Chinook Golf Course and Country Club is holding its 3rd Annual Community Dinner and Live Auction on Saturday, June 8th at the Blaine County Fairground Commercial Building.

Everyone is welcome to attend as it features something for everyone and is not just for those who play golf but to anyone who enjoys community outings.

The fundraiser is to help raise funds for maintenance and upkeep of the course. Equipment needs to be repaired or updated as well as fertilizer, bug spray, sand and other common needs for the course.

Last years event was held for the first time in June after holding it in the fall of 2017 the first year. The event provided a huge boost to the course. This year the course has already dealt with some major issues as the pump failed and needed to be replaced. The course just this week was able to get water on the greens and fairways.

The grounds keeping crew is working hard to better the course experience when visited by members and guests alike.

There are a lot of things planned for the night which begins with a social hour at 5:00 p.m. The Beverage Bar will open with refreshments being handled by the Chinook Eagles Club and will be served throughout the night.

Barbecued Baby Back Ribs are the main attraction of the dinner. Side dishes, desserts and more will accompany the ribs with help from some wonderful women who happen to be outstanding cooks. Dinner will be served from 5:30 p.m. - 7:00 p.m.

Ginger Hansen has organized a fantastic event and gathered plenty of great auction items as well as many door prizes.

The Live Auction will begin at 7:00 p.m. with Auctioneer Kevin Elias running the show.

In addition there will be a number of door prizes being given away throughout the night as well as raffle tickets being sold. Raffle winners will be drawn on September 8th at a cookout to be held at the Golf Course. Prizes will include cold hard cash along with various other items

This is a community event meant to be a fun time for the entire family not just golfers.

All proceeds will go to upkeep and improvement to the local course.
