Rockin’ Golf

July 16, 2022

The 6th annual Kenny Olson Rock-N-Hole Golf Tournament at Elmbrook Golf Course in Traverse City is just around the dogleg on Sunday, July 24. Olson, an acclaimed musician with a resume that includes guitarist for Kid Rock, has put his talent to use for a personal cause. Hallie Olson Watsell passed away in 2016 after a four-year battle with ovarian cancer, and her family rallied to continue her legacy. Proceeds of the event go toward the Hallie’s Hearts Endowment (through the Grand Traverse Regional Community Foundation), which helps northern Michigan women battling ovarian cancer. The $100 ticket covers golf, prizes, meals, and the concert. If you’re not one for the fairway, you can attend just the concert for $20, which starts at 7pm at Elmbrook and also features Jimmy Olson on keyboard.
