Perfect day for Middlefield Connects golf

Contributed

Middlefield Connects’ Second Annual Golf Tournament, held June 24 at Indian Springs, was a huge success. This year, the Middlefield Connects outing benefited the Middlefield and Durham Girl and Cub Scouts program, which inspires the next generation by connecting them to nature, and taking on conservation projects while having fun. The funding will go directly to the individual programs as a way of supporting scouting adventures and requirements.

The golf tournament organizers noted, “This was an exciting year out on the course. The weather could not have been more perfect for our players, and the generosity of our vendors and local businesses really helped to make this a memorable event. We really hope that this opens doors for all Scouts to engage in any events without financial barriers preventing participation.”

“This event was a real success, ” the planners added. “We love working with Indian Springs staff, and the food from Crostini’s made it a seamless event for our players.”

The top raffle prizes at the golf outing were a handmade quilt, a ride on a fire truck, a Yeti cooler, a paintball party from Powder Ridge, and passes to Lake Compounce.

The Scouts added a special marshmallow hitting contest on hole No. 4. The winner, coming in at 96 feet, was David Olszewski.

Plans for next year’s event are already in the works.
