Next Big Event: BarStool Golf!

Registration is now closed! Hope to see you all Saturday!
Event set for May 6th, 11am-5pm
The fun of miniature golf, indoors, in the Spring, with drinks and snacks on the side; what more could anyone ask for? How about helping out a great charity at the same time?!? This annual fundraiser puts the emphasis on a great day in Champaign, showcasing nine bars with all they have to offer. There will be t-shirts for sale, fun games at some of the bars, and even raffle prizes! Also, several bars will have drink specials and snack food available to players.
Each team consists of four players, $25 each to participate or $100 per team. Registration will open April 11th, online only, so get your teams together now. Pick a starting bar from the list below and arrive by 11am. Once all four of your players are at the bar, find the check-in table and tell the workers your team name. Your scorecard will be put in line to play the hole and your team name will be called when it's your turn so don't move too far away from the playing area. Once all team members play the hole, you'll pick up your scorecard and move on to the next bar. Buses will arrive about every 30 minutes to transport players or you can drive yourself. Players will need to walk between the three downtown bars.
Participating bars: The Axe Bar, Collective Pour, Esquire, Green Street Cafe, Huber's, One T's Corner Pocket, Pia's, Pipa's, and Pour Bros.
All proceeds will go toward our various projects; Amtryke giveaways, ramp building, scholarships for therapy students at Parkland College, and support for AMBUCS Park in East Urbana. It's a wonderful way to spend a Saturday in the Spring! Hope to see lots of you there!

February 18th was the date for the 2023 GCC AMBUCS Charity Cash! It was a fun time with lots of games, including a Heads-N-Tails game where the prize was a basket full of assorted liquors! We gave away an Amtryke and ate some wonderful food catered by Neimerg's Steakhouse of Effingham. Hope to see everyone back next year!
Our Chapter built two ramp in 2022. Unfortunately, due to the large number of requests and the onset of Winter, we will not build any more ramps in the 2022 season. Please check back in 2023!
Our club gives away therapeutic tricycles, called AmTrykes, to children and adults with disabilities. The process starts with a recommendation from a therapist. As soon as possible, a trike will be assembled and delivered for the person to enjoy! Contact Amtryke Ambassador, Scott Price, 217-202-4487, with questions.
