2013 GOLF TOURNAMENT

2nd Annual Golf Tournament

By Paula Jackson

       The 2nd Annual Association for Women Attorneys Foundation Golf Tournament, benefiting the AWA Scholarship Fund, kicked off on Friday, June 7, 2013, at 1:00pm on the scenic Mirimichi Golf Course.

      While soaking up the beauty of the surrounding natural grasses and wildlife, the golfers competed in a riveting 4 person scramble on the Championship 18-hole course. Other group members toured the greens and learned how Mirimichi's unique ecosystem helps it stand apart as the world's only golf course recognized with both Audubon International Classic Sanctuary and Golf Environment Organization certifications. The tour guide explained how the natural grasses on the course were planted at various heights to form a unique filtration system that helps to recycle and purify water.     

    As the competition wrapped up, the group gathered on a stunning patio to reminisce about the day's event, enjoy some appetizers, hail the winners, and receive some door prizes.  Thank you to all the competitors, volunteers, organizers, tour participants, and Mirimichi.    

     Don't miss this event next year, as it promises to just keep getting bigger and better!
