The John Hall & Associates MDA Annual Golf Classic took place this past Monday May 11, 2009. The event was a success – raising more than $18,000 for the Arizona Chapter of MDA. Positive feedback and smiles filled the lunch room after a beautiful day of golf at Eagle Mountain Golf Course in Fountain Hills, AZ. It would not have happened without the culmination of volunteers, sponsors, and players.
Like all charity golf tournaments, ours would not have been possible without the generous donations from many sponsors. The best way to thank them is to send business their way.
