MIG_LOGO_LDG_20THANIVMake ONE day of golf a BIG day for people with MS.

The MS Longest Day of Golf is not a typical golf tournament. This unique event allows you to golf for FREE at some of Michigan’s best golf courses while raising money to support multiple sclerosis (MS) research, programs and services. Host courses donate greens fees on select dates in the months of May and September. Play just one round, or spend the day and play as many holes of golf as you can with your foursome. There is a minimum fundraising requirement of $125 per golfer for each day of golf. One day of golf will make a big difference in the lives of people living with MS. Register today!
