Two Chamber employees walk onto a golf course… one with an arm in a sling and the other wearing a boot. Sounds like the start of a bad joke, right? However, nothing was going to stop us from having an incredible day on the course!

And what a perfect day it was. With sunny 80-degree weather, smiling faces, and golfers ready to have a good time, the 56th Annual Golf Tournament was one for the books. There were cartwheels on the course, drives that didn’t exactly stay on the fairway, and a few putts that came up just a little short… but that’s all part of the fun!

More importantly, the day was filled with laughter, community connections, and support for local businesses. We are so grateful to everyone who came out to golf, sponsor, volunteer, and celebrate with us.

A huge thank you to all of our sponsors for helping make this event possible and to our amazing volunteers who kept everything running smoothly throughout the day.

Special shout out to Dawson and Andrew Urban, Monica Vargas, Julia Allen, Erin Crompton, Lisa Moore, Debbie Amaro, Kammy Hayer, and Jeff Ingram for all of your hard work and support. We couldn’t have done it without you!

Thank you all for making this tournament such a success — we’re already looking forward to next year! Save the date May 14th,2027
