DOWAGIAC — The Chieftain Golf Outing will celebrate 20 years on June 15 at Indian Lake Hills Golf Course.

The annual fundraiser for the Dowagiac Athletic Boosters and Dowagiac Union School’s Foundation has already filled the spots available for players.

There is currently a waiting list in case someone drops out, but organizers are confident that probably will not happen.

Since its inception in 2003, the golf outing has raised more than $603,000. Last year, the outing raised more than $49,000, which set a new single year record.

While there may not be any more spots available for golfers, the Booster Club and Foundation are still seeking sponsors for this year’s event. There are six levels of sponsorships, ranging from $2,000 and above to $100.

Here are the sponsorships:
