After the loss of Casey David Schaftlein in 2022, the Schaftlein family and NAMI Louisville came together to create the Coach Casey Classic, a memorial golf scramble in his honor. This event had success in 2023, raising more than $25,000. We hope that we can replicate that success again this year, and are optimistic that our community will once again come out to support this great cause in the name of mental health.
