Shot in the Dark Charity Golf Tournament

This year's golf tournament raised $8,170.
All funds go toward the Wadena-Deer Creek Public school Weekend Feeding Backpack Program.

Due to spring storms, we had to reschedule our May event to late August. The weather was great and our players had a fun time supporting our local kids.

Thank you to all our sponsors and donors.
