On April 1, 2021 over 90 golfers assembled to participate in the WTS Metro Phoenix Spring Golf Tournament held at Whirlwind Golf Club at Wild Horse Pass. Golfers were greeted with blue skies and sunshine to connect, play, network and engage in our chapter’s largest fundraising event of the year that supports our scholarship fund.

We raised almost $6,000 and the event provided a welcome opportunity to get out and connect with others after months of separation due to the COVID-19 lockdown. The tournament was scheduled to take place in December 2020 but was postponed due to health precautions. We plan to resume our normal schedule of a 2021 fall or winter tournament so be on the lookout for a “Save the Date” notice in the coming months.
