On June 25, 2001, 168 golfers enjoyed a beautiful day at Golden Valley
Country Club while raising more than $100,000 to support the research and
education programs at Minneapolis Heart Institute Foundation.
We wish to thank all of the sponsors, contributors and golfers who made this
20th annual golf event so successful! Their support enables MHIF to pioneer
research in innovative technology, undertake major long-term studies to evaluate
cardiovascular treatments, and encourage heart-healthy lifestyles through our
education programs.
The photos shown here represent just a few of the 38 sponsors and 168 golfers
from this year's event. Please plan to attend the 2002 MHIF Golf Classic on June
24, 2002, at Rolling Green Country Club in Plymouth.
