The 3rd Annual Golfing for Heroes Event Was Great!

Preparing to set out on the course

There is nothing better than spending a warm 75 degree day volunteering for the 3rd Annual Golfing for Heroes held atĀ Quail Creek Golf Club.

The weather couldn’t have been better, those supporting our cause were having a great time, the staff at QCGC were phenomenal and the scenery was breathtaking.

New management took over the course back in February 2012 and it shows — I can’t recall any corner turned without either myself or my daughter (we were taking pictures) appreciating the view in front of us. The feedback from everyone who took place in the tournament was nothing but absolutely positive.

The event was very successful and it was great to meet so many new participants, some of the regulars and spending time with our Gold Star families.

Of course, the part that really warmed my heart was the money raised to further our efforts in raising funds to erect the memorial. It’s just another step closer to achieving our goal.

Our mission to honor our fallen military personnel is still very important to each of us. They fought for us — it’s the least that we can do. Our sincerest gratitude to the Quail Creek Golf Club for hosting our 3rd Annual Golfing for Heroes. You’re truly appreciated!
