Forty teams compete in CMH Sporting Clay Fundraiser
Forty teams gathered for the inaugural Citizens Memorial Health Care Foundation Sporting Clay Fundraiser, presented by SGC Foodservice. The tournament was held Sept. 22 at Ozark Shooters Sports Complex in Walnut Shade.
Teams of four competed to raise money for the Foundation, which helps to provide lifesaving care and services to Citizens Memorial patients and residents.
The tournament featured two rounds at 9 a.m. and 1 p.m. Players enjoyed complimentary breakfast, lunch, and snacks sponsored by Integrity Squared, CPAs and Ozarks Coca-Cola/Dr Pepper Bottling Company donated the beverages.
