Another Great Community Event
Thank you everyone for making the day great! We were blessed with wonderful weather, many golfers and lots of fun! The addition of the 9 hole option to play encouraged more players to come this year who either did not have the time to play 18 holes or were new to the game.
The Marshmallow Challenge brought out the fun side of golf from celebrations, confusion as to where the marshmallow went and, yes, just eating them. Check out the pictures below.
Elisabeth Vathje, Christ follower, Canadian Skeleton athlete, and TCS alumni 2009 was our key note speaker again this year. She shared her Olympic journey with our golfers and how her disappointment with her 9th place finish has impacted her faith and deepened her understanding of God's sovereignty in her life. Ryan Chase was our fantastic MC and we thank him profusely for his 10 years spent on the golf committee.
