On Monday, May 14 a gorgeous day on the links at the Hidden Creek Country Club was enjoyed by all the golfers and volunteers participating in Celebrate Great Falls’ Annual Charity Golf Tournament supporting our three local elementary schools: Colvin Run, Forestville, and Great Falls.  

Each year the AOG staff has fun volunteering with registration, driving golf carts, Closest to the Pin contests, or whatever else the tournament committee needs us to help with.  We also host a golf foursome or two for the office golfers and their peers.  

This year AOG was especially thrilled to sponsor the inaugural Kid’s Putting Contest encouraging the next generation of golfers. Students from the local elementary schools, grades Kindergarten through 6th grade, came to Hidden Creek, after school, to enjoy demonstrations and instruction from the State Championship-winning Langley High School Golf Team.  Then came the main event – the Kids Putting Contest – where the children competed for fun and their schools honor.   A big shout-out goes to those very talented – and patient – Langley H.S. golfers who instructed the kid’s while sometimes dodging swinging putters and airborne golf balls.

After the Putting Contest, all the kids, their families, and the adult golf tournament participants retired to the Hidden Creek Club House to enjoy the All-You-Can-Eat BBQ buffet – and escape the sudden storms that kindly waiting till after the tournament to arrive.  It was great to see so many come out to support our community and our schools.
