The Sunshine Swing – July 19, 2024

In July, SSC proudly hosted our inaugural Sunshine Swing Golf Tournament at CreeksBend Golf Course, which proved to be a resounding success. The event featured the perfect weather for golf, and participants enjoyed a day filled with great food, refreshing beverages, and an exciting auction featuring exclusive items. For those not on the course, the social hour provided a relaxed atmosphere with live music by Sam Schuring, along with plenty of laughter and camaraderie. It was truly a memorable day for all involved!
