THE GOLF IS OVER… BUT THE BIDDING ISN’T!
What an incredible day we had at our Driving Impact Golf Classic — A Day on the Green for a Greater Good!
Thank you to everyone who golfed, sponsored, volunteered, donated and helped make our first event such a special day.
But we’re not finished yet!
We’re keeping our ONLINE AUCTION OPEN THROUGH FRIDAY, OCTOBER 9th, so whether you joined us on the course or cheered us on from afar, you still have time to get in on the fun.
