The Winneshiek County Habitat for Humanity (WCHFH) affiliate is sponsoring the Don Kemp Memorial Golf Tournament on Thursday, August 7, at the Oneota Golf and Country Club. The tournament is a fundraiser for the affiliate to build affordable housing for low income families.
 
The shot gun start is at 12:30 and sign-in is from 11:30 to 12:30. The entry fee includes greens fees, cart, meal and prizes. People can enter individually for $65 each or as a team for $260. A meal option can be purchased separately for $20.

Sponsorship opportunities are also available. A Hole/Green Sponsor is available for $100 which includes a name on a sign at the green. Donations can also be made directly to Winneshiek County Habitat.

To register call Gus Johnson at 563-382-1802 or 563-380-6023 or send you registration information to Winneshiek County Habitat for Humanity, Box 457, Decorah, IA, 52101.

WCHFH will be building its 28th home this fall in Spillville. Founded in 1992, the affiliate has built homes in Burr Oak, Calmar, Castalia, Decorah, Freeport, Ossian, and Ridgeway. WCHFH serves low-income families who have sufficient income to pay a 25-year interest free mortgage and give 150 hours of "sweat-equity" labor to the project per family member.

Don Kemp, memorialized in the golf tournament name, was the volunteer Executive Director of Winneshiek County Habitat for Humanity affiliate until his death in 2003.
