Trenton & Downriver Soroptimists' Golf Outing Fundraiser

Trenton and Downriver Area Soroptimists hosted their very successful second golf-outing fundraiser on June 17, 2023, at Wesburn Golf & Country Club, 5617 S. Huron River, in South Rockwood. The perfect weather pleased the 120 people who were in attendance. Ninety-six were golfers who participated in the four-person shotgun scramble. Tee-time started at 1:30 P.M. The cost was $100 per person, which included the greens fee, caterer Twins Taco, and door prizes. A silent auction, a variety of raffles: gift baskets, 50/50 raffles, a $500 Carl’s Golfland gift card, corn hole boards, and prizes were also a part of the event.

The Soroptimists raised over $9000, with the proceeds going to local charities in need, as well as funds for the various service projects that help support women and girls in a variety of ways that include human trafficking awareness, education, healthcare, and domestic violence.
