For 21 years, the Golf Classic & Summer Party has united golfers and guests to support Summit Academy OIC’s life-changing career training. Held at premier Twin Cities courses, this event celebrates community, generosity, and the power of a job to break the cycle of poverty.
Join us to connect with change-makers and help create brighter futures—because at Summit, “The best social service program in the world is a job.”
Start with brunch and 18 holes on the stunning Jack Nicklaus-designed Bearpath course, and meet Summit students, alumni, and staff along the way. Then, enjoy the evening Summer Party with cocktails, dinner, a live auction, graduate success stories, and a giving opportunity.
Not a golfer? Join us just for the Summer Party! Your support helps provide career and technical education along with GED programs and youth career pathway development, building stability and brighter futures for hundreds of students each year. Bring a friend and be part of the impact!
