A huge thank you to everyone who came out to Birdies Fore Beacon earlier this week! We enjoyed golf, games and tasty eats and drinks with almost 300 of our closest friends. Thanks to the very generous support of our sponsors and attendees, we were able to raise over $90,000 to provide mental health services (and so much more) in Clay, Platte & Ray counties. We appreciate our community and are SO grateful for all who support us throughout the year! Check out the full album of photos on our Facebook page: https://lnkd.in/grv_XnxN #BirdiesForeBeacon
