he golf carts were lined up some 50 deep.
The men and women ready to play, smiles
all around, the cloudy skies and threat of
rain couldn’t dampen the mood. A little
pep talk and instruction and they were off!
The All Sports Association is an organization
whose primary mission is to provide a contribution
of time to raise money for local youth oriented
non-profi t organizations with an emphasis on sports
programs.
One hundred and eight players participated in
the Annual Summer Golf Tournament on Saturday,
July 23, at Emerald Bay Golf Club and raised
over $15,000. This event helped the organization’s
mission of supporting the youth of our community
in athletic events. Last year, through the golf
tournament and other fundraisers, they were able to
give over $100,000 to local youth through the Special
Olympics, the Boys and Girls Club of the Emerald
Coast, the Eleanor Johnson Youth Center and the
Fellowship of Christian Athletes.
