Adams Foam Sponsors CURE Golf Outing

Adams Foam is committed to support CURE and we thank all of our customers and professional associates who directly and indirectly have supported this important cause. August 29, 2007 was the 3rd annual Drive for CURE charity golf outing to raise funds for CURE (Citizens United for Research in Epilepsy). 125 Golfers participated, up from last year's 114, at Thunderhawk Golf Club in the far northern suburbs of Chicago. The winning team scored an impressive 10 under par at this 4 man scramble best ball format, and the team of Lonny and Brad Gold, with Dan Saviano of Regal Seating and Bruce Johnson of Kinetics Container, earned a second place finish with a total score of 65. Thunderhawk is considered one of the most challenging and beautiful public courses in Illinois, and we thank them for their hospitality as well. The event is run by Susan and Jim Schneider with the assistance and support of many friends and family who have witnessed the debilitating effects Epilepsy has brought to their daughter, Julie Schneider (25). The idea for Drive for CURE was first introduced by Adams Foam's President Lonny Gold in March 2005, at the 35th pledge class reunion of the Psi Chapter of Tau Epsilon Phi Fraternity from the University of Illinois class of 1973. Lonny states, "My intention was to raise awareness to my classmates of the plight of one of our fraternity brothers, Jim Schneider and his daughter, Julie." From that inception, the outing has, in just three years, raised more than $ 170,000.00 net going to CURE for research. Thanks to everyone for their support, and we look forward to seeing you at the outing again next year. Click here to learn more about CURE
