Dear Friends

Turkey Tee Off Tournament

The Turkey Tee Off Tournament, held each year at Cypress Lakes, had an amazing gift of $3,500 for Cy’s World.

Many generous golfers bought raffle tickets, donated golf bags, Basketball tickets and other items to raise the most ever donated to a charity in the 20 plus year history of this event!

I remember just one short year ago speaking to Tom Prewitt about adding our foundation to his list of charities, but Wow, this is truly amazing. Thanks so much. – Bob Newell
