2017 Speedway Miracle Tournament
Speedway’s annual Miracle Tournament took place last week at the NCR Country Club in Southwest Ohio. Over 800 golfers joined in two days of events—including 18 holes of golf, a gala dinner and medals ceremony, art auction, raffle drawing and prizes—all to raise money for sick and injured children treated in Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals. This year’s tournament marks the 26th annual
Speedway Miracle Golf Tournament—which over the years has, combined with other fundraising by Speedway, raised a total of $90 million for the 59 Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals that operate in the 22 states in which Speedway does business.
As golfers made their way around the course in a four-person scramble event, they were greeted by a total of 31 Miracle Kids—pediatric patients treated in 27 different CMN Hospitals—and their families who sold raffle tickets and golf balls for the cause.
All proceeds from the event support Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals in the communities Speedway serves. Although final totals from the event are still being calculated, the art auction alone raised $37,000 this year, with final totals announced in July.
