We had rain, hidden refs, dice, woodchucks, more rain, footballs, megaphones, more rain, and a whole lotta fun!

Thank you to everyone that golfed, donated, volunteered, and supported our 2026 CJO Golf Outing!

We raised a grand total of $12,241.34 for our youth football program today! 🙌🏻

This is by far the most money we have earned from our annual outing. We also had 31 teams play,making the top number of teams entered as well!

If you won a silent auction item and weren’t in attendance, we will reach out to connect with you soon!

We hope everyone had so much fun and we invite you all back next year on August 28, 2027 to run it back again. Please drop pictures in the comments to show everyone on how awesome of a time it was!

Let’s go, CJO!
