The 14th OVI/3rd Arkansas reenacting group and the Friends and Descendants of Johnson's Island Civil War Prison (FDJI) will be hosting their 5th Annual 'Great Golf Escape' golf scramble in North Baltimore, Ohio on July 24th, 2010. All proceeds from this outing go towards the purchase of 17.1 acres of the original Confederate Officer's Prison on Johnson's Island. Over the last 4 years this event has raised around $13,000. The cost is $50 per person which includes 18 holes of golf, cart, steak dinner and excellent door prize. We are looking for donors, prize sponsors and golfers for this event.

Looking forward to bringing a foursome to this outing. I encourage everyone to participate if you can.

I am happy to report that the Golf Outing raised over $3600 to benefit land purchase at Johnson's Island Civil War Prison. 19 teams made this our largest outing yet! Already planning our 6th annual event for 2011!
