North and South team captains are recruiting fellow golfers for the second annual battle for the Freedom Cannon on Thursday, June 6, at Southern Dunes Golf Course in Indianapolis.

Newspapers received regis­tr­­ation brochures by mail, and registration also is available at www.HSPAfoundation.org/golf-outing.

Friends from the southern end of the state will join Capt. Jack Pate of the Evansville Courier & Press.

Northerners will line up behind co-Capt. B.J. Riley of the Tribune-Star (Terre Haute) and co-Capt. Michael Christman of Fort Wayne Newspapers.

A blind draw will determine which North and South foursomes face each other in match play scored after all teams finish the scramble.

The side with the most victories wins the Cannon. (The Mason-Dixie line will remain flexible until registration closes.)

The annual golf fundraiser supports programming of HSPA Foundation.

Ah, the magnolias show their splendor. The daffodils smile and nod their heads in the showers. (And dandelions compete with chickweed to take over the yard.)

Signs of spring?

No. Actually these natural alarm clocks simply remind you to pull out your clubs for the annual HSPA Foundation golf outing – the 50th no less!

Teams from the North and the South will battle for the Freedom Cannon Thursday, June 6 at Southern Dunes Golf Course in Indianapolis. Read more »
