Join us in June 2025!
Think you can play 100 holes of golf in one day? Let’s find out! 100 Holes for the Homeless is a non-traditional golf outing that raises funds for Wheeler Mission. Participants commit to raising money as their entry fee. Every $500 raised provides one month of meals, shelter, and care for a guest at Wheeler Mission! You can register individually or split the 100 Holes with a partner.
What an incredible Thanksgiving Morning at the 2024 Drumstick Dash! 🦃🏃♀️
Thank you to all the amazing participants who dashed and donated to support those in need.

Drumstick Dash Night at Victory Field
Early Fall 2025
September 21, 2024
Show off your fitness in this team competition to raise money for local people who are hurting and experiencing homelessness. First, teams of 10 people (5 men and 5 women) raise funds for Wheeler Mission, then they compete against other gyms in a one-day crossfit-style competition at Park Tudor School. It really is a win-win event for the whole community!
We had a blast on Thanksgiving morning at the 2024 Drumstick Dash!
A HUGE thank you to everyone who laced up their shoes for the Drumstick Dash. Whether you ran, jogged, or walked, every step contributed to a great cause.
