You are invited to join us as the Bone Frog Open series returns to the beautiful University of Notre Dame campus. Proceeds benefit Uncommon Grit Foundation. Learn more about UGF here.
More than just a golf tournament, the Bone Frog Open is about remembrance, patriotism, and community. The goal is to celebrate legacies and raise money to support military, first responders, and their families as a way of doing our part to thank these men and women for being the ones to run toward danger, not away from it.
Join the local community, Navy SEALs, veterans, and other VIPs—including SuperBowl quarterback Jim McMahon—for two days of awareness, camaraderie, and fun. Come to campus on Sunday evening for drinks, finger foods, engaging speakers, and an auction with one-of-a-kind items. Hear from retired U.S. Navy SEALs Rob O’Neill and Darren “McB” McBurnett, Army Veteran Tony Bell, and more.

✨ Exclusive VIP Party! After the Sunday event on campus, spend time with our VIPs at Jackson’s Cigars & Spirits in a small group setting, complete with a bottle of Pappy Van Winkle. This opportunity is limited to 20 people.
_____
Festivities continue into Monday with a golf outing featuring a Bloody Mary Bar, breakfast, first-class swag, awards, surprises, and more.
Bone Frog Open events are a multi-day experience with great people, delicious food, unique auction items, custom awards, a beautiful golf course, and quality swag. Experience this year’s event and see for yourself what we are all about.

Building Momentum
The 2024 Bone Frog Open - Irish Edition raised over $85,000 in support of veterans and first responders. Locally, this support benefited grantees in areas of mental health, suicide prevention, and veteran homelessness, including:
Through our partnership with Dell and CDW, the Robert L. Miller Veterans Center received four Dell laptops for their veterans to use to apply for housing, search for benefits, find employment, learn new skills, and more.
