This year this classic 'original
six' tournament moves to a classic
course Don Ross designed layout at
Chandler Park in Detroit. The Caddyshack
Classic is an 18-hole,
individual stroke-play, net score
competition on the Tour's East
division schedule. Hosted
annually by the Links at Lake
Erie, food is included so stay
after the tournament. It is
optional to watch the movie the
night before to brush up on your
quotes.
Our
own Helen Puffenberger will
sponsor the Caddyshack Classic
in honor of her niece Reese
Reese
is my great niece and was born
on April 25, 2020. She was
diagnosed with late onset
Pompe disease.
Pompe
disease is a rare (estimated
at 1 in every 40,000 births),
inherited and often fatal
disorder that disables the
heart and skeletal
muscles. It is caused by
mutations in a gene that makes
an enzyme called acid
alpha-glucosidase (GAA).
Normally, the body uses GAA to
break down glycogen, a stored
form of sugar used for
energy. The enzyme
performs its function in
intracellular compartments
called lysosomes.
Lysosomes are known to
function as cellular
clearinghouses; they ingest
multiple substances including
glycogen, which is converted
by the GAA into glucose, a
sugar that fuels muscles. In
Pompe disease, mutations in
the GAA gene reduce or
completely eliminate this
essential enzyme.
Excessive amounts of lysosomal
glycogen accumulate everywhere
in the body, but the cells of
the heart and skeletal muscles
are the most seriously
affected.
Without
enzyme replacement therapy,
the hearts of babies with
infantile onset Pompe disease
progressively thicken and
enlarge. These babies
die before the age of one year
from either cardiorespiratory
failure or respiratory
infection. For
individuals with late onset
Pompe disease, the prognosis
is dependent upon the age of
onset. In general, the
later the age of onset, the
slower the progression of the
disease. Ultimately, the
prognosis is dependent upon
the extent of respiratory
muscle involvement.
There
is no cure for Pompe disease.
Individuals with Pompe disease
are best treated by a team of
specialists (such as
cardiologist, neurologist, and
respiratory therapist)
knowledgeable about the
disease, who can offer
supportive and symptomatic
care. Enzyme replacement
therapy is also available.
Please
help me to raise money for
this devastating disease.
Charity is the United Pompe
Foundation (unitedpompe.com)
Two
Extra Mulligans will be
offered and can be used on
any shot except a putt.
*** Like last year, we will
charge $10 to each players
account for the extra
Mulligans***
This year we will have several on
course prizes and a random draw for
more fabulous prizes.
