The Rotary Club of Chicago O’Hare Foundation is proud to host the 9th Annual Jack Frawley Golf Tournament on Thursday, June 11, 2026, at the beautiful Makray Memorial Golf Club in Barrington, Illinois. The event will begin with check-in and driving range access at 7:30 a.m., followed by a 9:00 a.m. shotgun start.
This annual tournament brings together community members, business leaders, and Rotary supporters for a great day of golf while raising funds for important local charitable causes. All proceeds from the event support scholarships and community programs benefiting organizations in the O’Hare area.
Participants can register as individual golfers or foursomes, and several sponsorship opportunities are available for businesses wishing to support the event and the Rotary Club’s charitable mission.
We invite golfers, sponsors, and community partners to join us for a day of fellowship, golf, and giving back.
