The rain sure didn’t stop the morning crew and the afternoon was almost picture perfect! So many of our board members were on their own teams, so we weren’t able to snap as many photos as we would have liked. Feel free to share your photos with us!

Thank you to all of our hole sponsors (stay tuned for a complete list) and players! It was a fantastic day of golf!

Memorial Day is the unofficial kickoff of summer, but it’s really so much more. Today we reflect on the ultimate sacrifice made by our service men and women, and their families.

Originally called, Decoration Day, it began after the Civil War as a way to show respect to fallen soldiers by placing flowers on their graves. May 30, 1868, John A. Logan of the Grand Army of the Republic proclaimed the first national observance. It wasn’t until 1971 that Memorial Day was recognized as a federal holiday.

“Our nation owes a debt to its fallen heroes that we can never fully repay” -Barack Obama
