We had a blast on Thursday, September 1 as we welcomed 144 golfers to Lakeview Hecla Golf Course for a great day on the golf course! The weather couldn’t really decide what it wanted to do, but the lightning managed to stay away so we were able to get all 18 holes in before enjoying a wonderful dinner with friends and colleagues.

This was our third and final golf tournament of the year – thanks to everyone who came out and played, to our sponsors for making it possible, and to all three golf courses and their staff for making our days as enjoyable as they were.
