Recap of the 19th Annual MSCA Golf Event
It was a beautiful day for the 19th Annual Golf Tournament held on June
21st. This year was a great turnout for golfing and networking with other MSCA
members and their clients to raise funds for a great cause. In addition, we had
an additional 60 people come join us for dinner and the silent auction. The Caring
Tree, founded by MSCA in 1993, promotes educational success for Minnesota’s K-12
students in-need by ensuring that they have the appropriate school supplies.
The Golf Committee puts a lot
of time and effort into preparations for the event and auction items. In
addition, many volunteers offered their time to help make the event a success.
The Lawn Ranger, Inc. sponsored the boxed lunches and Fredrikson &
Byron, P.A. sponsored the lunch beverages. 56 companies sponsored holes, 35
of which hosted raffle drawings or handed out beverages, food or goodie bags to
passing golfers. H.J. Development, Inc. sponsored our Par-Tee Carts that
allowed golfers to purchase raffle tickets for a chance to win carts for their
foursome stocked with beverages, ipods, cigars, etc.
Zach Stensland of Welsh
Companies, Mike Sims of Mid-America Real Estate - Minnesota, LLC and Margaret
Jordan, 2010 Caring Tree President, thanked the crowd for their ongoing support
for The Caring Tree.
All together, the putting
contest, silent auction, silent auction company/people matches, online auction
and hole sponsor raffles raised a total of
$25,849 for The Caring Tree! With The Caring Tree’s partnerships assisting
to leverage financial donations, these proceeds can help to send over 1,360
Minnesota children back-to-school with new school supplies!
Everyone who took part in this
event should be proud to know that they generosity benefited a worthy cause. We
all look forward to next year’s event being even more successful.
A special thank you goes out to
all the committee members and volunteers who gave their time and expertise in
making this great event possible. A job well done!
