A hole-hearted day to help out the troops |

Hartland - Carl Meyer is a certifiable golf nut, a solid 11-handicapper who plays 120 rounds a year, prefers to walk and carry his clubs and keeps a well-stocked cooler in bushes in his back yard, which just happens to abut a fairway on his home course, Chenequa Country Club.
Hey, a guy gets thirsty playing all that golf.
But Meyer plans to outdo himself on the Fourth of July. That's when he will play "100 Holes for our Heroes" to raise money for Hire Heroes USA, a nonprofit organization that helps armed services veterans make the transition from the military into civilian work.
"A lot of people think I'm crazy," Meyer says with a laugh, "but not just because of this."
One hundred holes in one day? Not only can it be done, but Meyer is living, staggering proof. Last year, he played 108 holes - six consecutive 18-hole rounds - on the Fourth of July and raised $15,000 for Hire Heroes USA.
