12th JDGCC Summary and Winners – June 2021
As our 12th John D Gomke Charity Classic (JDGCC) comes to an end I cannot help but sit and smile as our hearts our overwhelmed. Joined by family, old friend and new friends we gathered to celebrate our Angels watching over us and raise money to educate and help prevent future heartaches of infant loss. This was definitely a year we will talk about for a long time… starting Friday out with 28 4-some in 95 degree with an hour-and-a-half lighting delay and nonstop down pouring rain 5 holes into the round. Taking shelter in multiple places, including a bathroom. Ending with Saturday having perfect weather for two sessions hosting 21 and 22 4-somes and being able to give away four Owlets to new and expecting parents due to the generosity that started with an Angel families and continued with some of our amazing golfers (see more on this in another post).
