Third Annual Putt Putt Fore Puppies Mini Golf Tournament Benefiting Capital Humane Society Returns to Lincoln September 12

GolfStatus and Dormie Network team up for a fun-filled mini golf tournament that has raised $24,000 to help care for Lincoln’s homeless pets.

LINCOLN, Neb.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--GolfStatus and Dormie Network are teaming up once again for the third annual Putt Putt Fore Puppies Mini Golf Tournament on Friday, September 12, 2025, at Adventure Golf Center. The event brings together the Lincoln-area community for an afternoon of friendly competition while supporting animals in need.

Since its debut in 2023, Putt Putt Fore Puppies has raised an incredible $24,000 to support the Capital Humane Society in serving Lincoln’s homeless pets, assisting pet owners, and educating the public about responsible pet care. In 2024, the community fundraiser drew 250+ participants of all ages and skill levels.

The September 12 event promises even more fun, furry friends, and fundraising power, intending to raise $15,000.

“Putt Putt Fore Puppies is proof that when you combine golf, community, and a great cause, amazing things happen,” said Ashley Stahr, Chief Marketing Officer at GolfStatus and Dormie Network and tournament founder. “GolfStatus and Dormie Network are committed to giving back to our community through this fun, family-friendly event and are thrilled to continue supporting the Capital Humane Society’s important work for the third year.”

The event kicks off at 4:00 p.m. with the shotgun start at 4:30 p.m. Adoptable animals from Capital Humane Society will be onsite to greet players, and the event will feature:

  • Mini golf with a mission: 18 holes of best-ball play across Adventure Golf’s three fun and challenging courses. The winning team members on each course will take home a custom 3D printed trophy.
  • Golfer perks: Every golfer will take home a Comfort Colors t-shirt, a tennis ball dog toy, a pet bandana, and other golfer goodies.
  • Delicious eats: Dinner from Certified Piedmontese, snacks, and drinks to keep participants fueled for fun are included in registration.
  • Great raffle prizes. Purchase raffle tickets for a chance to win tickets to Hot Wheels Monster Trucks Live, Henry Doorly Zoo, or Vala’s Pumpkin Patch, plus gift cards to Scheels and New Day Coffee, merchandise packages, and more.
