The results are in from our last newsletter!

In our last newsletter, we included a Family Feud question.

.

The topic was "Name the top reason why people enjoy March GRADness."

The top answer was "All of the above," which included games, prizes, food, and more! The second top answer was "Supporting the PGA Scholarship Fund."

Thank you for participating! For more Family Feud questions, we hope you'll join us for March GRADness on April 3rd, 2023.
