On Tuesday, July 9, the Westfield Lions Club held its inaugural golf outing at Pebble Brook Golf Club in Noblesville. Eighty golfers participated in the outing and helped make it a successful event despite periods of rain from the remnants of Hurricane Beryl.
In addition to the individuals who played in the outing, there were more than 20 companies that helped sponsor the event. Special thanks go to the top sponsors, White House Donuts, Centier Bank, AEF Companies, Discount Copies, and MB Home Partners.
Along with first place prizes going to Cody Young’s team from Edward Jones Financial Advisors, golfers took home some excellent raffle prizes. These included Colts tickets, cornhole board sets, golf lessons, and gift cards from area Handles Ice Cream, Birdie’s, Red Habanero, and The Mill Tavern.
The proceeds from the event will be used to help pay for the Club’s current clubhouse renovation project. The clubhouse, located at 1101 E. 169th St., is being expanded to include a larger meeting area, full kitchen, ADA-compliant restrooms, conference room, and storage for the Club’s fish fry and poker tournament equipment. The Lions hope to have the project completed in the next couple of months and will be holding an open house to give the community a chance to check out the facility. Once open, the building will be available for the public to rent.
