It was a great day for all who came out and supported the 21st annual Sandy Golf Tournament on Monday, January 30 at Deering Bay Yacht and Country Club. This event has supported the Sandy Block Financial Aid Fund at PTS. Proceeds offer an outstanding student the opportunity to attend Palmer Trinity through need-based financial aid.
The event was a sell-out once again this year: 144 men and women hit the links and enjoyed a day of good food, drink, and friendly competition. It was a very successful tournament with approximately $100,000 raised–including orchid sales, raffle tickets, and other golf course games.
A special thanks to Chris Block, son of the late Sandy Block, for whom the tournament is named. Through the golf tournament, Chris honors the memory of his father, while bringing the community together to raise funds. We also thank our presenting sponsor Northern Trust, our Fairway Sponsor Brickell City Centre, and all our sponsors.
