Join us this summer for Lakeland University's annual golf tournament — The Blasters — on Thursday, June 11 at Blackwolf Run in Kohler, Wis.
Last summer's event was a huge success thanks to all our golfers, sponsors and hosts! Special thanks to WLKN – LAKE 98.1, OneSource Technologies, and Granular for their generous support of our students.
Lakeland University created the Blasters Golf Tournament as a fundraiser for the Alumni Legacy Scholarship endowment fund, which offered financial aid and book awards to relatives of Mission House/Lakeland College/University alumni. The fund has awarded more than $100,000 to students.
All proceeds from the event will support our Life & Career Studies (LCS) program, which offers a full college experience for young adults (ages 18-25) with intellectual disabilities. LCS empowers students by providing access to academics, employment opportunities, independent living skills, and community engagement—ensuring they experience college life alongside their peers. Learn more about the program here.
Save the date: Thursday, June 11, 2026
The success of our Lakeland students is a direct result of our donors and supporters!

Over two centuries ago, Chief Blackwolf and his Winnebago tribe resided in the Sheboygan River Valley. Today, melded into that very same river basin formed by the flows of glacial runoff, you’ll find The River and The Meadow Valleys at Blackwolf Run®.
Blackwolf Run opened for play in June 1988 and was named that year’s “Best New Public Course” in the country by Golf Digest.
Regarded as one of Pete Dye’s crowning achievements, Blackwolf Run has hosted a number of professional championships: the Andersen Consulting World Golf Championships in 1995, 1996 and 1997 as well as the U.S. Women’s Open in 1998 and 2012.
