Despite a gloomy weather report the day prior, the Second
Annual SERVPRO/ American Red Cross Golf Classic featured cool spring temperatures
coupled with live music, fresh gumbo and tournament festivities at Golden Hills
Golf and Country Club on April 29th. Most notably, $11,027 was raised for a charity
that returns .91 on the dollar to the local community for disaster relief
efforts. Thanks to the great support of
sponsors like Sunbelt Rentals, Carpet One and Sam’s Club, the donation amount
significantly increased from the $7000 raised in 2012.
The tournament was hosted by SERVPRO franchises in the
Midlands (Lexington, Dutch Fork and Richland County), and featured a shotgun
start of 26 teams composed of four players. The tournament included 15 tent
sponsors, live music by Shawn DeSpain of Palmetto Moon (and friends), breakfast
by Petite Caterer and dinner provided by J Gumbo. Plans are being made with the
Red Cross for an even bigger and better tournament at Gold Hills in 2014. If

We will update regularly on how to get involved.
