"FORE! 2010 Golf Classic—the Good News and the Bad News
The good news: this event sold out even earlier than in years past. We allow our continuing sponsors the first opportunity to renew their sponsorships and their golf packages each year, and they did so early this year.
The bad news: this event sold out even earlier than in years past. We regret that we have disappointed many people who wanted to golf with us this year, but are thrilled again to deliver an event that is so well received!
Our sponsors annually and generously provide the support for this event which, since 2004, has raised over $430,000 in net proceeds to support initiatives important to the delivery of exceptional patient care at OMC.
Thank you for your interest in being part of this fun and worthwhile event! Please visit the 2010 FORE! Golf Classic page today by clicking here."

Continuing medical education
Keeping OMC staff on top of the latest information in their fields of medical practice is critical to exceptional patient care. Olmsted Medical Center is an accredited provider of continuing medical education through the Minnesota Medical Association and provides regular programming for healthcare professionals seeking education in the fields of medicine and medical research. OMC Regional Foundation and Olmsted Medical Center work together to provide excellent educational opportunities onsite for OMC clinicians and others in the community working in healthcare.
- Through philanthropy, OMC Regional Foundation has established an online library of medical resources. The Dr. Harry F. Burich Online Clinicians Library was established with an initial endowment gift of $100,000 from OMC’s first surgeon, Dr. Burich, and his wife Grace. OMC clinicians and retirees also have contributed to support this library, which is available on every OMC computer workstation.
- The Noel R. Peterson Founders Lecture Series, created through the generosity of Dr. Noel and Ann Peterson, is a continuing medical education opportunity which is open to the public. The lecture series provides a local forum for healthcare providers and other community members to discuss issues including healthcare reform, bioethics, the impact of philanthropy in healthcare, and other important topics. Dr. Peterson, urologist and a past president of OMC, has been active in the Minnesota Medical Association and other organizations which suggests the importance of partnerships between healthcare providers and community. In addition to Dr. and Mrs. Peterson’s endowment gift, many other gifts have been received in support of this program.
- The Healthcare Professional Scholarship Fund provides a source of support for Olmsted Medical Center to continue to provide tuition assistance and other support for OMC employees who are improving their credentials and ability to provide exceptional patient care. Supporters of this fund understand the critical importance of ensuring a strong workforce in healthcare who will carry on OMC’s tradition of quality healthcare with a personal, friendly, and caring touch.
