500 Breakfast Club Third Annual Golf Outing Benefits CheckIt4Andretti Foundation

CheckIt4Andretti was honored to be the beneficiary of the 500 Breakfast Club’s 3rd Annual Golf Outing on Saturday, September 28, 2024. The group is made up of interested Indycar open wheel enthusiasts and meets for breakfast the first Saturday of each month.

This year’s golf outing, which was held at Eagle Creek Golf Club in Indianapolis, raised $8,739.66. The group’s chairman, Bob Beisel, presented the check to CheckIt4Andretti Secretary, Carolyn Andretti Molander.

Thank you to all the sponsors, donors and volunteers!

Hurricane Helene threatened to wave the red flag on the event

Hurricane Helene threatened to dampen the golf outing, but in the end everything went as planned. Bob Beisel summed up things up by writing: 

“Hurricane Helene was a threat to our morning activities but a few of us believed that #43 had his say in the matter. The weather did look threatening but as the day pushed forward, we believed that #43, John Andretti was holding the green flag. It was a blessing to all who participated that we only experienced a very light shower towards the end of the outing.  It was unbelievable that with an 80% chance of rain that day we were able to successfully complete the day.”

The day turned out nice enough to put the top down on the Indy 500 Corvette Pace Car. Diane Beisel enjoyed sitting in the driver’s seat, flashing a bright smile and giving a “thumbs up” for a successful event!
