2025 Golf Fundraiser Sponsors

Event Sponsor:

In publishing and graphic design, Lorem ipsum is a placeholder text commonly used to demonstrate the visual form of a document or a typeface without relying on meaningful content. Lorem ipsum may be used before final copy is available, but it may also be used to temporarily replace copy in a process called greeking, which allows designers to consider form without the meaning of the text influencing the design.

Platinum and Gold Sponsors:
 

Lorem ipsum is typically a corrupted version of De finibus bonorum et malorum, a first-century BCE text by the Roman statesman and philosopher Cicero, with words altered, added, and removed to make it nonsensical, improper Latin.

Silver Sponsors:

Northern Utility Contractors, Ken and Vicki Parrot, Terry and Laurie Glissman, Stephen and Louise Sweet, Toskey Fund "Bay View Friends," Doug and Sue Bouwense, Fairbarn Realty,

 
 

Versions of the Lorem ipsum text have been used in typesetting at least since the 1960s, when it was popularized by advertisements for Letraset transfer sheets. Lorem ipsum was introduced to the digital world in the mid-1980s when Aldus employed it in graphic and word-processing templates for its desktop publishing program PageMaker. Other popular word processors including Pages and Microsoft Word have since adopted Lorem ipsum as well.

Bronze Sponsors:

Dry Harbour Marine, Bud and Vinnie Klooster, Petoskey Plastics, Complete Paint and Supplies,Matt Mautz, Harbor Barber, Dale Lefever, Real Life Counseling, Our Green Horizons

 

The Lorem ipsum text is derived from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of Cicero’s De finibus bonorum et malorum. The physical source may have been the 1914 Loeb Classical Library edition of De finibus, where the Latin text, presented on the left-hand (even) pages, breaks off on page 34 with “Neque porro quisquam est qui do-” and continues on page 36 with “lorem ipsum ...”, suggesting that the galley type of that page was mixed up to make the dummy text seen today.

The discovery of the text’s origin is attributed to Richard McClintock, a Latin scholar at Hampden–Sydney College. McClintock connected Lorem ipsum to Cicero's writing sometime before 1982 while searching for instances of the Latin word consectetur, which was rarely used in classical literature.[4] McClintock first published his discovery in a 1994 letter to the editor of Before & After magazine, contesting the editor's earlier claim that Lorem ipsum had no meaning.
