The Ladies Titan Tire Challenge will be held at Hunters Ridge Golf Course in Marion, Iowa.
Junior League of Cedar Rapids in partnership with the Cedar Rapids Area Convention and Visitors Bureau are proud to bring this exciting event to our community.
Proceeds from the Ladies Titan Tire Challenge will support Junior League of Cedar Rapids’ (JLCR) projects and programs. Its 2009-2011 project partner is The Arc of East Central Iowa. JLCR’s plans for these funds include creating an expressive art studio on the first floor of The Arc building, which was damaged during the Flood of 2008. The creation of an expressive arts studio will create positive therapy options for individuals it serves, and the retail space will allow program participants to sell their art work and learn valuable business skills that will help them in future employment.
