The Delta Chamber of Commerce held its 8th annual golf outing this past week. The event was held on Thursday, June 13th at the White Pines Golf Course south of Swanton and Delta. The major sponsor for this year’s outing was Worthington Industries.
Chamber President Kirsten Fruchey explained that the event is formed yearly to build exposure for the chamber, form camaraderie, a little bit of rivalry, and bring on a good event for the community. Every year the outing raises money that is used to help an area nonprofit.
This year those monies will be directed to NORTA, the Northern Ohio Rails to Trails Association. This organization helps to maintain the paths that go on rails to trails and also looks to expand on those.
In addition to playing on the course, players were given the opportunity to pay one dollar per marshmallow. These would then be hit like a golf ball to see who could get the longest drive. The winner received a $25 gift card.
Fruchey also explained that the weather for the event was perfect and wished to thank White Pines Golf Course and all those who came out.
