The MHS Golf Team is selling two different sized umbrellas to help raise money for golf related expenses. We have a large 62” golf size umbrella, perfect for those days when you need a little extra cover from the rain. We are also offering a smaller 42’ sized option that opens at the push of a button. Perfect for those days when your arms are full and you need an umbrella in a pinch.
