Dollars Raised: $40,000+

Presenting Sponsor: Swift Knight Transportation

Winners: Todd Lowder (18-hole contest) & Daina Larsen (50-ft. sinker)

Notable Moments: The event was structured in two segments. In round one, participants competed across 18 holes with the objective of achieving the lowest score. In round two, participants were given a single opportunity to sink a 50-foot hole-in-one. In addition to the putting activities, attendees were treated to complimentary food and refreshments and had the opportunity to win a range of valuable prizes. Putt on!
