Rhode Island super hosting fundraiser in honor of his daughter

Shaun Marcellus, superintendent at Wanumetonomy G&CC in Middletown, R.I., and a Friend of Golfdom is hosting a special fundraiser to benefit The Stiff Person Syndrome Research Foundation.

Stiff Person Syndrome is a rare neurological autoimmune disorder that causes the muscles to stiffen up or spasm. Marcellus’ daughter, Isla, was diagnosed with the disorder at just 18 months old.

Marcellus and the Research Foundation will host the event at Wanumetonomy, at a date to be determined, with golf, a silent auction and a goal of raising $10,000. The event is seeking sponsors to donate player gifts, food and more. Anyone interested in helping can email Marcellus at Shaun@wanumetonomy.com.
