On Tuesday, September 9, 2014 City Mission held their 9th Annual Ladies Golf Scramble. This event has been held at the Fort Cherry Golf Club since 2006. At 9:00 a.m. on Tuesday morning, 140 ladies headed on to the course, teeing off in support of ending homelessness one life at a time.
After a beautiful day of golf, the ladies enjoyed a wonderful meal prepared by Fort Cherry Golf Club's staff, had an opportunity to purchase tickets for the many auction baskets and heard from guest speaker and President/CEO of City Mission, Dean Gartland.
Most importantly, the golfers were able to hear one of our former female residents share movingly about the time she spent in our women's shelter, Avis Arbor, and talked about how the program helped transform her life from homelessness to independent living.
Thank you to all businesses, organizations and individuals who supported this event through financial contributions, in-kind donations and participation! See you on the green next year!
