The Orthotic and Prosthetic Assistance Fund (OPAF) and The First Clinics are hosting a sealed-bid auction for two Grounds Ticket packages to the 109th U.S. Open Golf Championship to be held June 15-21, 2009, at Bethpage State Park (Black Course) in Farmingdale, New York. The Grounds Ticket packages are valued at $400 each and offer tickets for all seven days of the tournament, including a Monday ticket, in case of a playoff.
OPAF requests that bidders submit their maximum bid by e-mail to with the words “U.S. Open Bid” in the subject line of the e-mail message.
OPAF will accept sealed bids until 5 p.m. EST, Friday, June 5, 2009.
“Proceeds from the U.S. Open sealed bid will allow us to continue hosting First Clinics across the country at no cost to any participant,” said OPAF Executive Director Robin Burton. “First Volley, First Swim, First Swing, First Dive, and launching in June 2009, McKeever’s First Ride offer adaptive recreation to those served by members of the O&P community. Your support helps us to continue our mission of ‘Giving Wings to Dreams.'”
