Honoring the Legend of Dr. John Proos at Laker Golf Classic

proosclassic

He was a revered community leader and set a remarkable example for everyone in his presence. Dr. John Proos, father of State Senator John Proos, is remembered fondly on multiple fronts including the Volunteer of the Year Honor named after him at the KitchenAid Senior PGA Championship played at Harbor Shores.

His love for both the game of golf and his beloved alma mater at Lake Michigan Catholic schools are also the driving force behind a 26 year tradition known as the Laker Athletic Golf Classic, and members of the local business community are invited to join the ranks of the sponsors who will help assure another year of record-setting success for the Laker Nation.

Senator Proos tells us that the 26th Annual Dr. John Proos Laker Athletic Golf Classic is dedicated to the memory of his father, a long time member of the medical community in Michigan’s Great Southwest who died following the 2014 Senior PGA Championship. Dr. Proos was the 2000 “Laker of the Year,” and showed his love of Catholic education in the region through his 30 years as a board member and President of the Lake Michigan Catholic School Fund.

In fact, for 30 years “Doc” Proos donated his time to provide free athletic physicals to all Laker athletes and families.
