The annual HK’s Lake of the Ozarks Open, the largest fundraiser for Lake Regional Health System, will take place on June 7 and 8. The event aims to raise funds for heart care services at the nonprofit hospital.
This golf tournament is an important tradition in the community, supporting access to advanced cardiac treatment for residents and visitors. Proceeds from this year’s event will help purchase new imaging technology for the hospital’s Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory.
The festivities begin with HK’s Benefit Party on Sunday, June 7, at The Lodge of Four Seasons Campana Hall. Attendees can meet sports celebrities and participate in live and silent auctions. The main golf tournament follows on Monday, June 8, at The Club at Porto Cima, starting at 10 a.m., with an awards reception concluding the day.
“We invite the community to join us,” said HK’s Chair Mark Brown. “It’s a great tradition for a great cause. Our community is blessed to have an exceptional heart program right here at Lake Regional Health System, and ensuring access to the latest heart care technology and advancements is essential to their ability to continue providing the best care.”
Since its founding in 1979 by local leaders, the tournament has raised over $4 million for health care initiatives in the area. This year’s proceeds will specifically fund industry-leading imaging equipment—the Philips Azurion 7 Series—which improves visualization during procedures while reducing radiation exposure.
Registration is limited to 120 players at $500 per golfer. Entry includes a tee gift, brunch, course refreshments, and admission to HK’s Benefit Party.
