2024 Foundation Review
Another perfect day allowed for the mission of the tournament to play out, reconnection of Andy’s pals on the beautiful green fairways of Coronado Golf Course, surrounded by the blue bay and cityscape of San Diego. It is rewarding to see and hear the buzz of folks meeting at the registration, the competition starting at the putting green contest, followed by the team play of the scramble. Capping a delicious post tournament meal, a heartfelt presentation of the benefits of your generous financial support was rendered by Pastor Eddie Dopp and Emily Miklos, telling her story of losing her dad and how the Foundation has helped provide funds for her education. We are thankful for all the donations that contribute to the awards and raffle prizes to create an opportunity for everyone to take home a meaningful memento of the day.
In just the 3rd year of the tournament, the field grew to 66 players with 28 sponsors and a net of $13,273! We feel blessed by the growing support and encourage you to invite family or friends to the 4th annual tournament.
