Circle Of Concern Charity Golf Tournament - SUCCESS

The Circle Of Concern Charity Golf Tournament held Monday, September 15 at The Legends was a success.  The field of 72 golfers enjoyed the day slicing, hooking, squibbing, missing, and yes even hitting the little white ball straight with the most perfect weather for a good cause in raising more than $8,000 for the food pantry of Circle Of Concern.

I would like to share the below message from the Executive Director of Circle Of Concern to our St Mark Congregation.

"We are honored to be the long-time beneficiary of the St. Mark Charity Golf Tournament.   On behalf of the struggling families we serve, I want to thank you for giving your time and resources to organize and staff the event.  I have been involved with golf events for many years, and I know the work that goes into it...and oh, the necessary arm-twisting of friends, family and colleagues to support the event!  It is not for the meek of heart! 

We are all so incredibly busy these days.  And there are many worthwhile causes.  It means a lot when individuals give their time and resources to raise dollars to support our mission.     

Support from caring folks like you enables us to help families with healthy foods, personal care items, financial assistance and other resources during their most difficult times.  Kids in our area whose families have a financial need may apply for scholarships that help them to pursue their dreams – and change their future for the better.  Others benefit from the coaching of volunteer mentors, who help them to network, build a resume, and strengthen their interviewing skills, etc., which can help them to land their first job – or a better job. 

Circle could not exist without the help of compassionate individuals and community partners such as you.  Thank you so much!"

Sincerely Yours,

Cyndi Miller
