Seymour Ladies Golf

THE 10th Annual Seymour Ladies Charity Invitational Golf Tournament took place on July 11th at Seymour Golf and Country Club. As usual, the gals were dressed to impress - this year donning bright yellow tee shirts and antennae, essentially turning the clubhouse into a giant bumblebee apiary. And while the bee theme was a salute to Seymour's participation in the Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary Program, the gals also managed to raise $32,000 for the Lions Gate Hospital MRI Fund. But golf was the name of the game and fun prevailed as their 10th anniversary party day ended with a great luncheon, silent auction prizes, raffle draws and more. Congratulations ladies.
