Phil Hansen Participated

 
Cecil Reid traveled all the way from Forest City, NC with his two daughters to participate in the tournament. He was the oldest male golfer and also the person traveling the furthest for the tournament. Thank you, Cecil, for your wonderful GiveBack to the Cando/Towner County area!
It was a beautiful day for our tournament and we were happy to welcome ten former or current educators to our tournament, as they renewed friendships with those golfing or joining us for our dinner!
Special thanks to . . .
Impact Foundation for their support throughout the year and for our tournament. To all of the board, members, grounds crew, staff and volunteers at the Cando Golf Course - thank you for providing a beautiful course, lovely gathering space, many of the golf carts, and welcoming atmosphere. To R.J., Katie, Gabby, Roger and Kathy Miller - thank you for your special efforts in serving up a wonderful dinner, and to Vicki and Wayne Lingen and Donna Huschle for their generous volunteer hours. Our thanks to Lavonne Haugen and Jill Eggl, Impact-Cando Connection Fund Advisory Board Member, who graciously shared their expert photography skills to capture the fun and excitement of our 10th Anniversary event in Cando. Our tournament was a success because of all of your GiveBack!
