WSTFA Golf Tournament Pt 1
From the Ag Information Network, this is today’s Fruit Grower Report. Now that summer is officially here, it’s time to start planning for the summer events you’ve been waiting for.
Jon DeVaney, President of the Washington State Tree Fruit Association, says their annual golf tournament will be here before you know it …
DeVANEY … “Yes, it seems strange to think about a late summer event now, but like cherry season things sneak up on you pretty quickly. We do our annual golf tournament every August. This year, it is Wednesday, August 27th there at the Highlander Golf Course in East Wenatchee.”
And that, DeVaney says comes at a time when many folks in the industry could use a little break …
DeVANEY … “It’s a great time for people connected to the tree fruit industry to have some socializing after cherries and after the initial start of apple and pear harvest to take a day off and enjoy a little comradery.”
And the funds raised, DeVaney says are put to great use …
DeVANEY … “It’s also wholly to benefit industry charities, and specifically a number of memorial scholarships, in memory of past tree fruit industry leaders, to benefit college students. And those are managed by the Washington Apple Education Foundation, so we have good professional management of those funds.”
