Proceeds from the tournament will benefit the Kara Zinke Emergency Fund, a division of the Canaan Northwest Lion’s Club. The tournament was started by the Zinke family in honor of Kara Zinke, who passed away in 1993. In the past year, the Fund has provided $13,000 to 26 families in need. The Fund is a way for the Zinke family to give back to the community for the kindnesses that they received after Kara’s passing.
