Grover Golf Open
On Saturday, June 25th, the 3rd Annual Grover Golf Open took place at Pleasant Run Golf Course in Indianapolis. The family of Daniel Witter, an avid golfer, conducts this annual event in memory of their beloved son, brother, and uncle. The funds raised have been the catalyst for Triton Central Elementary and Middle School First Tee programs. This year, a summer program is being conducted at the practice field at Triton Middle. Organizers Sean and Ashley Duffey recently posted on the Grover Open Facebook page,
Another AMAZING Grover Open! Thank you to our volunteers, our sponsors and our golfers who come together to make this day special! It was a beautiful day to celebrate Daniel’s memory while raising money for the next generation of golfers. With the help of all of you, we once again successfully raised thousands of dollars for First Tee! We’re thankful for the relationship we’ve created with Roger Lundy & Lucy Ross at First Tee-Indiana so we can continue to expand programming in Eastern Marion, Hancock and Shelby Counties.
Our family is blessed to have had all of your support over these last three years! It has not been easy for us, or many of you, as we miss Daniel every day. However, seeing all of you at the outing, and hearing memories of Daniel is a bright spot in our year. It means so much to our family to have you spend the day with us!
