111 golfers participated in the 2017 Dew’s Golf Tournament at Possum Trot Golf Course,raising $14,500 for Teen Angels, a local organization that assists homeless and less fortunate North Myrtle Beach High School students.
The North Myrtle Beach Aquatic & Fitness Center was the event organizer and host, and Dew's was the presenting sponsor (www.dewshasit.com).
Teen Angels assists homeless and less fortunate North Myrtle Beach High School students by providing them with school books, personal care products, transportation to doctor and dentist appointments, and much more. The students are too old for foster care and too young to do it all on their own, and they have made the decision to stay in school, despite the challenges they face.
Tournament participants enjoyed a variety of competitions in addition to the 18 holes of Captain’s Choice Golf Tournament play. Activities included a Longest Drive Competition won by Madison Elliot and Josh Westerhaus and a Closest to the Pin Competition won by Madison Elliot and Bob Chandler. Additionally, $1,000 was up for grabs in the Hole-in-One Competition.
Following the tournament golfers enjoyed a delicious lunch at Wild Wing Café in Barefoot Landing. There they were able to relax, collect some door prizes and celebrate with the tournament’s winning teams. The Ladies Team of Carol Hodrick, Marty List, Karen Bard, and Cyndy Suarez were victorious. For the men Bob Corley, Wayne George, Bill Rogers and Rodney Rogers pulled out the victory after a three hole tie-break. The Mixed Team winners included Lester Perkins, Mark Rawls, Leesa Rawls, and Nils Regnell.
Next year’s event is Saturday, August 18, 2018.
A HUGE “THANK YOU” goes out to all the players and sponsors who helped make the North Myrtle Beach Aquatic & Fitness Center/Dew’s Golf Tournament an exciting and successful fundraising event.
