In mid-September Zach Johnson returned to Iowa and held a one-day golf event that helped raise $350,000 for the 2008 Iowa Disaster Fund.  While in Iowa, he returned to his hometown of Cedar Rapids and filmed a video, with the help of PGA TOUR staff, designed to encourage contributions from around the around.
