A golf outing held Sept. 15 at Magic Hills Golf Course in Columbia City netted $7,340 for the Alzheimer’s Association.

Russ Fahl, owner of the golf course and of Westhaven Estates in Warsaw, held the benefit at his golf course to raise money for the Alzheimer’s Association in honor of his wife, Evelyn, who was diagnosed with the disease about 5 years ago. Evelyn is now residing in an assisted living community in Fort Wayne.

Fahl said there approximately 40 businesses that sponsored holes and provided prizes for the event.
