Mount Clemens, Mich. – May 20, 2025 – Turning Point, an agency whose mission is to empower survivors of domestic violence, sexual violence, and human trafficking through comprehensive services and resources, will be teeing it up for the ninth year as the organization presents its annual Survivors’ Golf Outing at Cracklewood Golf Club in Macomb on Friday, June 20. Turning Point President and CEO, Sharman Davenport, Ph.D., is looking forward to the annual event.
“Our summer golf outing is a fun gathering of Turning Point supporters, advocates and new friends helping us to both raise money and commemorate our 45th anniversary,” Davenport said. “Turning Point’s ultimate goal is eradicating domestic violence, sexual violence, and human trafficking. Until that happens, we rely on – and appreciate – the support of the community to help us provide critical services for as long as there is a need.”
Turning Point offers a 24-hour hotline, counseling and advocacy services, transitional and rapid re-housing programs, shelter, legal advocacy, personal protection order (PPO) assistance, forensic nurse examiner and first response advocacy, and community education and prevention efforts. It also operates a resale shop, Second Hand Rose, in Clinton Township, that provides support to survivors and the community.
The outing is a scramble, with registration beginning at 8:30 a.m. and a shotgun start at 10 a.m. The day will include course games and prizes, hole-in-one contest, lunch, drink tickets, and a post-golfing dinner. The price is $175 per individual or $600 per foursome. Sponsorship opportunities are also available. Cracklewood Golf Club is located at 18215 24 Mile Road in Macomb, Michigan.
