CHICAGO, IL (May 9, 2003) - North Park University (NPU) and Chicago Bears head
coach Dick Jauron are combining forces at a June 2 Golf for Kids event that
will raise funds for underprivileged children.
The golf tournament will be held at Midlane Country Club in Wadsworth. Golf
registration and lunch begins at 11:30 a.m. with the first tee time at 1
p.m. A silent auction and buffet dinner begins at 4:30 p.m. Guest speakers
