2024 Golf & Taste Celebration

The Winery at Sovereign Estate & Island View Golf Club, Waconia


Thank you, thank you!

What a celebration! Thanks to each of you, our new, two-day Golf & Taste Celebration was a huge success. There were close to 1,000 people at our Taste Celebration at Sovereign Estate on Sunday and nearly 325 people at the golf tournament at Island View Golf Course on Monday, including community members, sponsors, volunteers and vendors.

Most importantly, together we raised just over $1 million for phase 3 of our Cause for the Community campaign that supports Women’s & Children’s Services, including Pediatrics, Surgery, Pharmacy, a new Mental Health Service Line and our Critical Access Hospitals in Arlington and Le Sueur.

Not to be forgotten highlights from the day:
