CONGRATULATIONS TO MIKE ANDERSON ON HIS 21ST ANNIVERSARY AT BERKELEY HALL

When it comes to Berkeley Hall, Mike Anderson embodies the best of our team’s continued commitment to excellence. In his role with Community Grounds, he exemplifies the dedication and detail required to provide the overall best Berkeley Experience. While we all know the grounds are meticulously cared for, we often don’t see the attention and hard work behind the effortless beauty of our Club’s landscape. That’s in great part to Mike’s longstanding knowledge of our community ground’s needs. This October, Mike celebrated his 21st anniversary at Berkeley Hall.

he 2022 Charity Cup was an extraordinary success! Thank you to all our members for your generous support. The Charity Cup has become our signature fundraising event, and thanks to the generosity of the BHC community, the charitable foundation exceeded our goal this year. Together, we raised more than $375,000 for local charities. Monies raised at the event will fund the 2023 grant cycle and the need this year is greater than ever. Through our New Supporter and Matching Funds Campaigns we met our goal, and received the full matching funds of $50,000. This is the first time in our history we’ve had a matching campaign. Berkeley Hall rose to the challenge, and it’s this compassion that represents the best of our community. We’d like to take this opportunity to thank our membership, our sponsors, auction contributors, and our live auctioneer Fritz Hatton, for helping us make a difference together! Our Charitable Foundation’s vision is to ‘Make a difference by addressing the basic human needs of the greater Bluffton Community, especially those who are most vulnerable.’ With the help of our membership, The BHCF has raised over $2.5 million for local charities since its inception in 2008.

A SPECIAL THANK YOU:

to our exceptional volunteers, donors and sponsors for your outstanding contributions. We could not have made this event happen without your tireless efforts.

SAVE THE DATES!
