I can’t believe this was year number three for our golf tournament. We had 40 players and several new hole sponsors as well as numerous gifts for prizes. The team from Daniel’s Funeral Home took first place. We raised about $5000 dollars to support this worthy charity. Thanks to all of our volunteers and Isleta Eagle Golf Course for a fine job.
