August 31st is Kelowna APPLEFEST!!!

It was the 7th Annual 'Golf For Julia' fundraiser Golf Tourney at Sunset Ranch. The day was FULL of fun, food, fun drinks and hilarious challenges, followed by a delicious dinner at Sunset Ranch, as I was fortunate enough to be the MC for this. I HAD SO MUCH FUN! And my dad played in our foursome, and was once again the best golfer we had on our 'best ball 'team.

Backstory: Julia Grassmick has been on a long road to recover, while she courageously learns how to walk again, after a spinal injury left her paralyzed at only 17 months old. More at golfforjulia.com

From Julia's Mom Melissa: BMACK!

We are excited to share that $25,000 was raised on Sunday for Julia and we couldn't have done it without you. It was such a pleasure having you all play golf and emcee the dinner and we hope you enjoyed the day as much as we did! Thank you so much for donating your time to our family.

PS - we've booked August 24, 2025 as the date for the 8th Annual Golf for Julia fundraiser, so please save the date and I'll touch base with you in the new year. 😊❤️
