WOKC would like to send a big THANK YOU to all the golfers, volunteers and sponsors who braved the weather Thursday, October 27th to support the 9th annual AA WOKC Golf Classic at Cowboys Golf Club in Grapevine. Despite a weather forecast of 70% chance of rain with temperatures in the 50’s, the tournament was a great success due to each golfer, volunteer and sponsor that supported this event.
The sold-out tournament had 136 golfers competing in the 4-person scramble tournament for some great on-course prizes including a new Lexus IS and Mercedes Benz C Coupe, compliments of Park Place Motors and a round-trip ticket on American Airlines, compliments of our presenting sponsor, American Airlines. Players were also competing for Michael Young autographed Texas Rangers’ memorabilia for 1st, 2nd & 3rd place gross and net scores. Hilary Felton and Jessica Vogler of 3M coordinated the on-course 3M volunteers who all deserve a big round of applause!!
The rain held off until around 5pm when everyone was heading in for the 19th Hole Festivities to celebrate the day of golf with drinks, dinner, auction, awards and prizes … and World Series Game 6. Tournament Co-Chairs, Noah Hansford and Rick Ross, presented the awards and prizes to the winners below to wrap up the evening.
Thank you to all who supported our cause by bidding on the live and silent auction items. The biggest winners of the day were the thousands of children battling cancer today. Your support will make a difference in the lives of these children.
