The CAA held its annual Golf Outing on September 13, 2022 in a return to the Golf Club of Dublin for the first time in almost 15 years. The sold out outing hosted over140 golfers and a variety of sponsors as they gathered for a day of scramble golf, games, food and friendly competition. Golfers were directed to their starting tee for a 9:00 a.m. shotgun start and continued through the 18 holes on their way around the course visiting with CAA Members at each sponsored hole. Some playing games, posing for photos, grabbing a snack or a drink and learning about products, services or companies before teeing off. Sponsors made their respective holes unique with various products or distinctive games creating a light, cheerful atmosphere for the golfers throughout the day. Golfers were welcomed at registration with a breakfast sandwich provided by The Guarantors and a Bloody Mary bar sponsored by TNT Power Wash. Unified Residential sponsored the lunch grill at the turn for each golfer and sponsor while ServPro served up margaritas from the Turn Tiki Bar. Mulligans were sponsored by Multifamily Utility Company and FABCO sponsored the scorecards. Bresco Broadband sponsored the carts. A special thanks to Bailfish Services for serving as this year’s tournament sponsor. After roughly five hours of golf on an unusually chilly day golfers and sponsors enjoyed drinks and food in the ballroom anxiously awaiting the awards and swapping stories about their day. CAA Executive Director, Laura Swanson opened the ceremony by thanking everyone for attending and had the privilege of announcing the winner of the 50/50 benefitting the CAA Community Assistance Foundation.
