Golfing for the Community
What started out as a way to show appreciation for the businesses and developers that make a positive difference in the community has turned into something else, in typical Langford fashion. The annual Mayor’s Charity Golf Tournament has raised more than $360,000 over the past 15 years to assist and support groups and organizations like the Langford Legion, SportAssist, school crossing guards, Belmont athletic programs and more. It’s great to see how so many of the same people step up with donations, and how many volunteers have been with the tournament since the beginning. It says a lot about community pride, and the efforts to help out organizations dedicated to helping others.
