SOGAGG Colleagues,
Just a note of sincere gratitude from Ken and me for your great support.
Without question, SOGAGG just being SOGAGG was a massive hit with the 144
participants and the staffs of United Through Reading, Support The Enlisted
Project and Salt Creek.  More so, you helped raise badly needed funding to
assist our military families, and for that I think we all slept well that
evening.
All the best to the best,
/Ace

Inaugural Golf Tournament Sells Out; Raises More Than $64,000 for Military
Families
June 27, 2017

United Through Reading and our friends at Support The Enlisted Project cannot
thank you enough for the amount of generosity we experienced this past weekend
at our inaugural joint golf tournament this past Friday, June 23rd - which was
a sold out event! We were able to raise more than $64,000 to support our
military families both home and abroad as they face challenges both financially
and in retaining the family bond.
Golfer, Cathryn Spetter, had the following to say, "Today was a perfect example
of the whole being greater than the sum of two parts. The combined efforts and
resources of both organizations made for a great day and a successful
fundraiser."

golf course!
The tournament featured a shotgun/scramble format, and included a number of
standard proxy events, such as longest drive, nearest the pin, and also sold
mulligan packages that include two mulligans as well as a co-branded hat thanks
to a deep discount from Puma. After a round of golf, everyone enjoyed a Mexican
feast, silent auction, and live auction. The live auction offered high-end
prize packages including a stay in Mammoth, La Quinta, and Rosarito Beach in
Mexico as well a 2-3 hour Traveling Golf Simulator Experience courtesy of
Street Swings.  Congratulations to the winning foursome: Steve Connor, Ed
Quinby, Danny Davis & Matt Ludvik.

UTR and STEP, respectively, ready to hit the course!
STEP and UTR's Chief Executive Officers, Tony Teravainen and Sally Ann Zoll,
had an opportunity to refresh and connect with golfers as they rode around the
course distributing beverages. "The overwhelming support displayed by the
wonderful people of San Diego in making this dual-charity golf tournament a
resounding success is a testament to the strong connection our community holds
with our military and their families," shared Zoll.
The evening's program also featured an award presentation to the tournament
winners, 1st Place: Stephen Connor, Danny Davis, Matthew Ludvik and Edward
Quinby; 2nd Place: Bill Krebs, Steve Liberko, Mark Sliber and Craig Wood; and
3rd Place: Ryan Smith, Greg Walt, Kris Williams, Matthew Holder.  It also
included recognition of the event's sponsors, 19th Hole Sponsor - IOMAXIS,

Builders, Birdie Sponsors - KES, Umpqua Bank, and Tee Sponsors - Bank of
