G Gathering Golfers raise money for teachers and students

Golfers raise money for teachers and students



The Virginia Beach Education Foundation's 18th Annual Golf Tournament and auction was recently held at Heron Ridge Golf Course in Virginia Beach. Golfers enjoyed competing for prizes while raising money to support educational grants for teachers and students in Virginia Beach City Public Schools. A dinner, silent auction and awards ceremony topped off the day. This year's tournament was another huge success.
