This year's event took place Saturday, August 11th.

King, S.H. Gates, Dorie Miller, Bella H. Cameron and Pfeiffer academy. Additionally, this year, our organization provided refreshments for over 600 students, parents and SAISD staff members who participated in a science fair for 5th grade students in area II of the district.

Our total efforts were noticed and celebrated by SAISD with a “Friends of Education” award bestowed on our origination by the Board of Trustees and the Superintendent at their December meeting.This tournament taps members of the corporate and business community for a full day of golfing fun.
