This Memorial Golf Outing continues to honor the life of Chuck Hollenbach. Chuck was a Brother Knight, a friend, and a compassionate supporter of the Fox Valley Pregnancy Center, now the Corbella Clinic. Chuck battled ALS for many years, and although he lost his fight to the disease, he never gave up on life. To honor Chuck and carry on his legacy, the Knights of Columbus Council 12497 host the annual “Never Give Up on Life” Memorial Golf Tournament, which supports the Corbella Clinic.
In honor of our 20th Anniversary Golf Outing in partnership with Corbella Clinic, the Knights of Columbus St. Charles Council 12497 have setup with Lands End the opportunity to order a very special Golf Shirt (mens and ladies). Please click on the link below to order your 2019 Corbella Clinic Golf Shirt.
