Mardi Gras Golf Classic to Support Buddy Russ Foundation in May

The Mardi Gras Golf Classic will tee off on May 23, 2025, at the stunning Koasati Pines Golf Course, located at the Coushatta Casino Resort in Kinder, Louisiana. This exciting charity event will begin at 8:30 AM with a shotgun start, bringing together golf enthusiasts and supporters of a great cause.

The tournament is hosted by the Krewe De Fous Amis and the Buddy Russ Foundation, an organization founded in memory of Buddy Russ Conrad, a beloved community member and radio host who battled cancer until he passed away two years ago. The foundation’s mission is to support individuals and families facing cancer, offering financial assistance and emotional encouragement during difficult times.

Participants in the Mardi Gras Golf Classic will not only enjoy a fun and competitive day on one of Louisiana’s most beautiful courses but also contribute to a worthy cause. A portion of the funds raised during this event will help the foundation continue its vital work in supporting cancer patients and their families.

In addition to the golf tournament, attendees can look forward to a day filled with Mardi Gras-themed festivities, complete with food, drinks, a chance to win a brand new truck or golf cart, and camaraderie. It’s the perfect opportunity to enjoy a round of golf while making a meaningful impact by helping the Buddy Russ Foundation.

Registration for the event is now open, and spots are expected to fill quickly. Whether you’re a seasoned golfer or just looking for a fun way to give back, the Mardi Gras Golf Classic is an event you won’t want to miss. Join the community in honoring Buddy Russ Conrad’s legacy and supporting a great cause this May at Koasati Pines!
