WGGB Celebrates 20 Years with a Successful Fundraising Tournament
WGGB Grantees having fun and learning new skills.
Women Golfers Give Back was thrilled to mark our 20th Anniversary year with another successful Charity Tournament in June 2023. Thank you to all our sponsors, grantees and supporters for making it a special day and helping WGGB raise funds for next year’s girls golf grantee programs. Also, thank you to Whitemarsh Valley Country Club for hosting the tournament and to Member for a Day for running our online auction of unique golf experiences.
The day started with a clinic for our younger grantees with LPGA and PGA pros, and a 5-hole competition for our older grantees. See photos of the girls in action and 7-hole tournament winners on the WGGB Facebook page.
After lunch, 21 foursomes of WGGB sponsors and supporters competed in a one best-ball tournament followed by cocktails and dinner. Once again, our LPGA friend and long-time WGGB supporter and LPGA Hall of Fame member, Val Skinner, graced us with her presence and beautiful swing on a par-3. See the photos of our afternoon tournament here!
* Stay tuned for our 2024 fundraising tournament date *
