Thanks for making this year's Golf Classic a huge success! Stan Niederhauser, Event Coordinator

Kansas City Chiefs players Matt Cassel, Ryan Lilja and veteran Len Dawson joined 141 other golfers at The Mission Project Golf Classic June 27 at Lake Quivira Country Club. Together, they raised money for The Mission Project, young adults with disabilities like Down syndrome and Autism, who live and work on their own in Mission, Kansas
