The Stand Up Guys are a circle of friends that have been gathering at
Rock
Bottom Restaurant and Brewery in West Des Moines, Iowa for about 15
years. Our trademark is that we always stand and never sit. We got
to know the Rock Bottom staff pretty well over the years, and they
dubbed us
"The Stand Up Guys". We were lucky enough to be asked to volunteer and
organize a golf tournament managed by the Rock Bottom
Foundation. We're proud to have raised over $130,000 for the Iowa
Homeless Youth Centers in Des Moines. So, if you visit Rock Bottom and
see
some guys standing around a table or two, stop by and say hello to "The
Stand Up
Guys".  The Stand Up Guys were very proud to play the 2011 SUG Golf Classic in memory of Mike Reimers:  February 27, 1961 --- August 9, 2010
The 6th Annual Golf Classic was dedicated to the memory of Mike Reimers,
who passed away on August 9, 2010. He was a fellow "Stand Up Guy" and he lived
up to those words. He volunteered and golfed in each of the first five
tournaments and was also very committed to the Iowa Homeless Youth Centers'
cause. He has been, and will continue to be missed. “We make a living by what we do, but we make a life by what we give.” ~ Winston Churchill ~       |
