120 golfers participated in the sellout event, and sponsorships were also sold out. The first place team, with a score of 60, was Davies Ford. Event sponsor was Highway Appliance, with cfsbank sponsoring the $10,000 ‘Hole In One’ contest, and Stoney’s Brewing was the beer sponsor. They were joined by more than 50 additional sponsors. A hockey stick putting contest and a money wall that paid out $1,040 to the winner were featured as fundraising activities throughout the day.
“The weather was spectacular, on a beautiful course,” said J.J. Georgagis, Chairman. “We surpassed our fundraising goals, and had a lot of fun, too.”
Chamber Director Deb Keefer reported that proceeds from the outing benefit scholarships to Leadership Washington County, California University, and Douglas Education Center.
