We have an amazing club! EMRC members, check out the findings of our recent survey. Thanks to President Zdenek for guiding us through this process and implementing initiatives to make our club even better. Click below to review the responses to 65 questions.
Spring brings the greening of the course! Get ready - Start getting your foursome together - invite some friends, neighbors, co-workers to golf the new Braemar. The Annual Patrick D. Kennedy Golf Tournament returns to Edina in 2019 at the newly designed Championship 18 course at Braemar.
The City of Edina began construction, in Oct. 2016, of the first new regulation 18-Hole golf course in Minnesota in more than a decade. Designed by Richard Mandell Golf Architecture, the old layout was completely stripped down and transformed into a 6,941 yard golf course.
The new design has wider fairways with minimal number of hazards to create strategic options for all talent levels. Mandell also made an environmental statement by restoring 4.37 acres of wetlands and enhancing a bit over a half-acre of additional wetlands, creating 32.11 acres of wetland buffer and introducing 33.85 acres of Oak Savanna throughout the golf course. Get to know the course.
The new Championship 18-Hole Course was scheduled to open in August 2018. Due to the impact of Mother Nature, the course opening was postponed to Spring 2019. Edina Morningside Rotary Club was the first scheduled tournament on the new greens!
Join us for lunch on the patio followed by golf, then return to the clubhouse for a celebration dinner complete with a prizes and a silent auction.
EMRC International – “Suds of hope”
Open Arms Home of Children is a home for orphaned and abused children in South Africa. It was founded by Bob Solis and his wife Sallie in 2006. Bob grew up in Minnetoka and is the president of Open Arms Home for Children and is a member of the Sun City, AZ Rotary Club.
EMRC and District 5950 helped purchase the equipment for the laundry facility at this home. Another example of Rotarians in action, coming together to do good across the world!
The Rotary Club of Edina Morningside is part of an international grant partnering with Modular, Matter and the Rotary E-Club of Southern Africa (D9400). Our funding will help bring critical health services to people living in an informal settlement in South Africa. A fully equipped medical pod was pledged by Modular and Matter, and EMRC provided $7,500 in funding to assist with the transport of this medical container to its destination. This is part of a project to establish a "Health Hub" for the Malusi informal settlement. The medical pod has arrived in Africa and is being utilized!
