FCA Golf's Inaugural Champions Tour Pro-Am

 
Matt & Larry Nelson, Champions Tour Professional
  
Dear Mulligan Society,
  
Did you know that FCA Golf hosted its inaugural Champions Tour Pro-Am this past April 22nd and 23rd at Wexford Plantation on Hilton Head Island, SC?
  
The Champions Tour Pro-Am experience began Sunday evening, April 22nd at the Wexford Plantation Clubhouse, where participants mingled with Champions Tour Professionals, enjoyed a wonderful dinner, bid on wonderful travel experiences and auction items, and heard from Champions Tour Chaplain, Tom Randall.  To finish off the evening, a random draw "Pairings Party" took place in order to determine which Champions Tour Professionals would be playing with which teams.
  
Monday was a picture perfect day for golf, where participants had the chance to play with professionals such as: Andy Bean, Jim Chancey, Anders Forsbrand, David Frost, Fred Funk, Billy Kratzert, Tom McKnight, Larry Mize, Larry Nelson, Tom Pernice, Jr., Loren Roberts, Dave Rummels, Gene Sauers, Scott Simpson and Doug Tewell.

The Champions Tour Pro-Am will become a yearly experience for those wishing to help support and underwrite the costs associated with FCA Golf's yearly programming.  In addition, the event provides funding for Hilton Head FCA.  Currently, FCA Golf is partnering locally with Hilton Head FCA to conduct a Junior Golf Camp and several ministry venues at the RBC Heritage (PGA Tour event), including: The Heritage Breakfast with the Pros, PGA Tour ministry with players, caddies and their families, and the Sunday morning Chapel Service on the 18th green that has featured past PGA Tour winners.
  
Having several of the Champions Tour Professionals on Hilton Head Island for the day, grabbed the attention of the local newspaper.  Read the article that appeared on the front page of the sports section Tuesday morning following the event:
