On Monday, June 17, CyrusOne Inc. held its second annual Midwest Golf Outing at the beautiful Cog Hill Golf and Country Club in Lemont. Over 250 guests enjoyed a morning of golf, followed by a cocktail reception, lunch, silent auction, and raffle. More competitive golfers took part in the Corporate 4 Ball Challenge in a battle for bragging rights, trophies, and prizes on the infamous Dubsdread Course.
Proceeds from the event benefited the Midtown Educational Foundation and the roughly 1,100 kids it serves each year. Since 1965, MEF has offered urban youth and their families after-school and summer programs that focus on academics, character, and virtue development, plus physical fitness and mentorship. Youth programs start in the fourth grade and continue through high school graduation. MEF’s class of 2019 was the 20th consecutive set of students to achieve a 100 percent rate of high school graduation and college enrollment.
