We had a great day of fellowship and fun at our annual charity golf tournament this year. The weather cooperated with the early morning rain clearing by noon. The turnout was our best ever with over 130 Rotarians and friends joining in. While the final numbers are not yet determined, early indicators are we will clear over $48,000 to benefit the Club’s philanthropic efforts. A special thank- you goes out to our major donors who include; Air Comfort Service, ACI Plastics, Conway Contracting, Dobbs Tire and Auto Centers, Lashley & Baer, Niehaus Construction, Stifle Nicolaus, Jim & Sue Petru, Dave & Linda Wicks, The Dale J. Wernig Foundation, and Wilson Manufacturing. In addition, there were over 45 Rotarians that supported the event with either Hole or Cart sponsorships.
No event can be successful without the support of volunteers willing to give of their time during the event. A big thank you to this year’s volunteers including: Rose Copper, Michelle Critzas, Joan Hacker, Michelle Heath, Bob Hesley, Amy Lewis, Don Fuller, Mathew Maddox, Brien McCarthy, Lora Richie, Rebecca Richie, Kjell Stiensland, Suzanne Schoomer, Matt Wilson, Missy Wilson.

We each wish to extend our thanks to all those that helped make this a successful event. We hope to see you all again next year for another great tournament.
