Frozen Fairways Golf Classic

02/03/2025

Attention Frozen Fairways Fans: A New Journey Begins! ❄️⛳️🚀

🏆 After an unforgettable run on the icy greens—where teams like the “Rock N’ Rollers” and “Miracle on Ice” brought humor, heart, and fierce competition—we’re excited to announce a new direction for the upcoming year.

Frozen Fairways 2025 will be paused. ⏸️ Instead of our annual mini golf extravaganza, we’re channeling our energy and event proceeds into launching the Wheels to Work program. 🚗💼 This initiative is all about helping community members overcome transportation hurdles by providing support to get reliable wheels on the road, opening doors to job opportunities and a brighter future.

We’re incredibly grateful for your enthusiasm—from the snow-covered fairways of Blandin Beach to every quirky costume and creative hole design that made our past events so memorable. 👗🕺 Your spirit has not only made Frozen Fairways a winter highlight but has also laid the foundation for impactful change.

📣 Stay tuned for more updates on Wheels to Work—find out how you can get involved, volunteer, or spread the word. By investing in this new program, we’re taking a significant step toward empowering our community and making a lasting difference. 🤝

Thank you for your continued support and passion for United Way of 1000 Lakes. We look forward to sharing this exciting new chapter with you and will be back with more details before you know it! ⛳️

Let’s keep the momentum rolling 🚀—together, we’re driving change! 🚗
