CARL KOLOGIE: Imaging Center big winner

How cold was it?

Well, if you hit a ball in the water on No. 7, it would skid and bounce across onto the green.

Actually, there was no ice on the water, but I did hit a skipper onto the green at the 28th annual Mario Luther Charity Golf Classic held Friday at the Indiana Country Club that brought quite a chuckle to the other members of the foursome.

It was almost too cold to play golf, but some just threw on another layer of clothes and continued play.

No one won a car and there was no payoff at the Million Dollar Hole-In-One Shootout, but the big winner was the Indiana Regional Medical Centers M. Dorcas Clark, M.D., Womens Imaging Center, the tournaments charity of choice this year.

Speaking at the dinner following the event, on behalf of the Womens Imaging Center, were Heather Reed, executive director the Indiana Healthcare Foundation; Sue Majoris. RN, who spoke on the centers services and programs; and Judy Sipos, RN, a breast cancer survivor. All are employed at Indiana Regional Medical Center.

Chris Hoke, a retired defensive lineman for the Pittsburgh Steelers, also spoke briefly.

Hoke, who said he has lost 70 pounds since playing in a backup role as nose tackle to Casey Hampton, continues to do public relations work for the Steelers and quite often appears on the Pittsburgh television scene.

Always flashing a wide grin, the personable Hoke made the rounds on a golf cart with Mario chatting with players during the event.
