The MDA’s Annual Session has moved back to April, and that’s too early for golf! So the Michigan Dental Foundation is holding its annual golf outing May 9 at the Lakes of Taylor Golf Course in Taylor, Mich.

Here’s an opportunity to have fun and help the Michigan Dental Foundation raise funds for much-needed scholarships, dental health education, and access to dental care programs.

The sixth annual Michigan Dental Foundation Golf Outing proved to be another great success, with more than 110 golfers hitting the fairways of the Lakes of Taylor Golf Course on May 2.

Golfers participating in the event and were rewarded with a day of fantastic golf, friendship, food and fun. First place went to the team of Dr. Scott Doman, Dr. Dan Doman, John Dardzinski, and Dr. Mike Schmitt.

The funds raised will support the Foundation’s efforts in providing scholarships to students in dental health-related careers, oral health education programs and access to care programs for the underserved.
