The Yorkville Chamber’s 19th Annual Golf Outing at Blackberry Oaks Golf Course was a massive success, with beautiful being the cherry on top.
Golfers enjoyed “hassle free” golfing, with mulligans, yardsticks, on-course games, lunch, dinner, drink coupons, and 19th hole refreshments all inclusive.
The festivities continued into the evening with a scrumptious dinner buffet at Kennedy Pointe Restaurant and Pub.
Many area businesses & organizations came together to sponsor and create a fun-filled day for the golfers.
- Golf Cart Sponsor Mars Wrigley gifted each golf cart with bags full of candy.
- On-course beverages were complimentary, thanks to sponsor Yorkville Leads Group, Leads Infinity.
- “Birdie Box” lunches with wraps, chips, and cookies were sponsored by Family Focused Financial, Tamara Wiley
- The Bloody Mary Bar, sponsored by Earthmover Credit Union, welcomed golfers before they headed out on the course.
- On-course volunteers were shuttled by Outing Ubers: Karylin Clevenger of Veterans Assistance Commission of Kendall County, members of Yorkville Leads Ignite, and members of Yorkville Leads over Lunch.
- Golfers were able to use mulligans and yardsticks to improve their scores, thanks to sponsors The Trailer Guy and Yorkville Ace Hardware.
- No winners again unfortunately, but the option to win $10,000 for a hole-in-one was sponsored by FNIC.
