The Annual HK’s Hospital Benefit Golf Tournament — traditionally held the first weekend in June — was established by Harold Koplar, founder of The Lodge of Four Seasons. Throughout its history, it has earned in excess of $3 million for Lake Regional medical departments and the purchase of new medical equipment. This year, all proceeds will benefit Lake Regional Family Birth Center and go toward the purchase of new fetal heart rate monitors. Fetal heart rate monitoring is critical to detecting changes in the baby’s normal heart rate pattern during labor. If certain changes are detected, steps can be taken to help treat the underlying problem. A normal fetal heart rate, on the other hand, can reassure both the patient and the health care provider that it is safe to continue labor, if no other problems are present.
“Thanks to the community for supporting this important event again this year,” said Terri Hall, Lake Regional director of Fund Development. “We could not be successful without our generous sponsors, donors, golfers and volunteers.”
Hall also thanked the event co-chairs Susan Brown, Peter Brown Jr., Cecilia Thomson and Walter White; Honorary Co-Chairs Dustin and Britton Colquitt; and the Kansas City Chiefs Ambassadors.
