I love to help out. I can help out in any way possible. I've been doing whatever I possibly can to help chad with his "Wheels 4 Chad" fundraising campaign, and I'm in the process of helping him put together the information about his upcoming "Drive for Chad" golf outing. Visit www.westernlakes.com to learn more about this upcoming golf outing.
At this website, you can learn about where the golf course is located The address is Western Lakes Golf Club . W287 N1963 Oakton Rd . Pewaukee, Wisconsin. The 262-691-0900
Here's a little about the facility-
This facility was built in 1963 and was known as Tumblebrook. It was purchased by the current owners in April of 1988, who changed the name in June 1988 to Western Lakes Golf Club. Greg and Paula Essig arrived at this name to show location and geographic features of this area, being West of Milwaukee and located in a heavily populated ‘Lake Country’.
Western Lakes offers one of the finest 18 Hole Championship golf courses in Wisconsin, with motorized golf carts and a fully stocked Golf Shop. We offer yearly memberships and are open to the public as well. Our award winning practice facility and driving range comes complete with 3 target greens, practice bunker and chipping green, as well as a large putting green. We have a PGA Professional on premises, who has a very successful Jr. Golf Program and is available to give lessons. We strive to offer you the best of the game of golf as well as hosting weddings and banquets.
The upper level of our clubhouse was completely renovated in 1998 and entertains guest from groups of 40-300. We specialize in banquets, weddings, golf outings, and meetings. Our lower level, known as ‘The Turn’ (remodeled in 1999), has a bar and serves sandwiches to golfers. This area is open throughout the golf season. We also can accommodate up to 70 guests in this room, year round. Saz’s provides a variety of food arrangements for all of the banquets, golf outings, weddings, and specialty Sunday brunches at Western Lakes. With Saz’s success in the food business, we are proud to have them aboard.
Whether you’re looking to golf or you’re looking for a site for your daughter’s special day, we’d like to invite you to check out Western Lakes. Our promise is to serve your every need…on and off the course.
We offer you staff that is dedicated to every customer. We hope that you’ll always find our staff helpful, knowledgeable, and at your service. We are Western Lakes Golf Club…exceeding your expectations.

Help wanted
My friend Chad Murphy-Price needs our help.
Here is his story.
So far, the money raised: $5,2000Here is a little bit about Chad that you may or may not know. He is 25 years old and has had his current wheelchair since he was fourteen. As you can imagine, there are many, many miles on that wheelchair and it's time for a new one. His current wheelchair is falling into disrepair and many parts of it are being held together with duct tape. The manufacturer no longer makes the needed parts to fix it. Unfortunately, Chad's application to the State of Wisconsin for a new wheelchair has been denied. So, Chad with the help of many friends is attempting to raise the $42,000 needed for a new motorized wheelchair. This new wheelchair will give Chad, who lives in an assisted living facility in Waukesha, greater independence to pursue his career as a website designer and to continue in his role as a nationally-known speaker who advocates for children with disabilities as they transition to adulthood and greater independence.

Waukesha, WI 53188
Checks can be made out to "Wheels for Chad"
Chad wants to get a new wheelchair to replace the current one he has now- one that he's had since he was 14-years-old.
A bit of background on how I know Chad:
Chad and I met four years ago at a leadership conference in Washington, D.C. I learned that Chad had cerebral palsy; however, I didn't know at the time about his aging wheelchair. Chad didn't really ask for much help. I've known him to be very independent and do things for himself. I didn't realize that Chad needed help getting a brand-new wheelchair until Festivus (which was started by nother friend of ours, based off of an episode of Seinfeld). During the three-day Festivus event and prior to it is when I got news from Chad of his situation.
Here's a ChadTV video (created by Cha) which will help you get to know my best friend.
Have a Blessed day!!!!
Sincerely,
Nico

http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#/video/video.php?v=48292584212&ref=nf is the link for you to see the latest episode of Chad TV. On this particular episode, Chad, Kurt, and I went PROMOTION crazy, plugging the 5FsFestivus event that's really supposed to be really stupendous this weekend.
Prior to the start of the Chad TV episode,I explained that I feel like I could be doing a lot more to help promote the many Festivus events that will be taking place in the coming days. . . that I feel I could be helping out a lot more if I were in Wisconsin. This is when Chad got the idea that it might be possible for me to actually come up this weekend- that he'd see if this might be able to get arranged, as long as I'm willing to help pay for gass. Of course I'm willing to help out in any way possible.
I also explained to Chad that I feel as though I'm no longer a part of the team, due to the comment I received last week about "leading the team away". Chad told me that the work I've been doing is exemplary, and that he NEEDS me on the team. Chad convinced me that I'm a useful member of the team, therefore using his charm to win me back- apologizing for what had been hurtfully said.
Now, things're back to normal, and I'm ready to help Chad kick off the fun. Who knows, I might get to open the event- that is, if I actually get to attend the event in person. Chad knows that I don't want to be left out of the fun, and he's not wanting me to be left out- either. I'm glad I have a true blue friend who will do whatever he can to make my dream of attending Festivus, and participating in the many activities, actually come true.

Last Lap
5FsFestivus Is Finally HERE!!! Chad and I just did an episode of Chad TV, where we talked all about the events, which will be taking place this weekend. Chad has asked me if I'd like to help, and I accepted his offer. After an end to last week, which saw hurtful words being said to me, his offer was that I might be able to come up to help with the events this weekend.
Wow, would that be awesome! I think that helping out with this event would be so extraordinary. I think just helping out in any way you can to help out in this wonderful cause. Chad is wanting everyone to support him, to donate whatever they have to this wonderful cause in order to help him obtain his ultimate goal of eventually getting a new power wheelchair.
Hey, encourage your friends and family to donate whatever they can to this worthy cause. Your time is valuable in helping us with this wonderful cause. Whatever you can do to help will definitely be greatly appreciated.
