Poor December weather pushed our End of the Year Bash back a month, but 100 students, donors, board members and coaches still had a blast with the Dennis Walters golf show and the talented Gussie, who can also hit some big drives. Dennis shared his inspirational story of perseverance and following your dreams. The students enjoyed contests, the Dune Dog food truck and Kona Ice.
