Today, we were honored to deliver a check to Russ and Jessica Brafford. We watched Russel play on the floor, throw toys and everything little boys do. It was an amazing visit with a wonderful family.

September 11, 2027 is locked in for the 8th Annual Tournament. Plans are already in motion to make it a memorable day for everyone.

We would love to hear ideas of how to make it better, what to change, what not to change, etc. Reach out with any idea you might have!

Again, thank you from the bottom of our hearts for all of your support.

It is difficult to find the words to describe yesterday at the Acorns Golf Course, as the level of support was truly overwhelming. Whether you were a friend, family member, volunteer, or a golfer who had not previously met the family, everyone worked together to ensure a wonderful day. To Russ and Jessica, we are in awe of you both, as watching everyone throughout the day made it clear just how special you truly are. You have added another meaningful chapter to our story and reminded us of why we founded this charitable organization.

As I mentioned yesterday, we want to share our heartfelt appreciation to everyone involved. There is a reason why our rate of returning players, volunteers, and participants remains around 70%.

We look forward to doing this all again, with each of you, on September 11th, 2027.
