Bringing Visibility to Disability in North Port

Heron Creek Golf Country Club hosted a highly successful Loveland Center golf tournament on September 30th. Golfers were treated to a delightful breakfast sponsored by PGT Industries, and received gift bags thanks to the Title Sponsor, Burnt Store Title of SWFL. The golfers were able to participate in several activities on the course, including a Hole in One competition sponsored by Charlotte County Ford, a Longest Drive competition sponsored by JE Charlotte Construction, and a silent auction to win various gift baskets. A lunch buffet was served in the beautiful dining room, which offered a picturesque view of the golf course. The top three foursomes were awarded trophies, making the event even more memorable. It was a great day for golf lovers, with beautiful weather and exciting activities.
