Ft. Myers Beach Golf Tournament – Thank You
To the editor:
For most the word “reunion” resonates with thoughts of family, high school, or military service. For me reunion means the Fourth of July Fireworks Golf Tournament and the phone calls leading up to the event.
This past Saturday, June 11, the 23rd Annual Fireworks Golf Tournament was held at Fort Myers Beach Golf Club. It’s like old home week, getting to spend some quality time riding from hole to hole, passing out beer to some of the same people I first handed a beer to 23 years ago! And surprisingly, none of us look any older!
I’d like to thank everyone who came out to play in support of the fireworks. The sponsors this year were better than ever for providing gift donations and purchasing a hole sponsorship, or two, or three, or four!
To the volunteers, you know we cannot pull off any event without your help and support. Thank you to Bill Semmer, Joanne Semmer, Tracey Gore, Lynda Monacco, Kelly Murphy, Betty Semmer-Hill, Lorraine Semmer, Billy Semmer, Sandi Bianchi, Jill, Chris, Paula and the Fort Myers Beach Golf Club Team, Ruth, Lisa, and Dawn and the Bonita Bill’s Team.
The following are the sponsors who need to be recognized for their generous contribution and support of the Fort Myers Beach Fourth of July Fireworks Golf Tournament – THANK YOU!
