The fourth annual CCHS Alumni Association Legacy Golf Outing will be held on Saturday, September 25, at Eagle Glen Golf Course in Columbia City. It is open to all who love the game, not just CCHS alumni.
The event is more about fun, sportsmanship, and fundraising to benefit current CCHS students and the community than about superior golf skills or winning the golf tournament.
All monies raised from sponsorships, donations by patrons & golfers of monetary gifts or prizes will be placed in the Whitley County Community Foundation and used for scholarships and awards or grants to supplement CCHS curricular or extra curricular activities (student activities, Renaissance program, Eagles In Flight).
This event made possible by hole sponsors with special help from Bobick's Golf, Eagle Glen Golf Course and Espich Printing.
The tournament will be 18 holes, with a 4-person Florida Scramble format. Shotgun starts begin at approximately 1:15 p.m. Check in 12:00 Noon and the range will be available to warm up and get ready for a fun event.

The Woodham family enjoyed a trip to Teton National Park (July 10, 2010, to celebrate 50 years of being a family. On the trip were son Eric, daugher Kathryn Woodham Theobald, husband Jerry T. and son Cooper; daughter Audrey Woodham Raaycroft, husband Ted R. and daughter Ellie & Son Cameron.
We hiked, white water rafted, horse back rode and spent a day fishing on Jackson Lake. We watched old faithful on a trip to Yellowstone park. Other highlights included an evening at the Jackson Hole rodeo, gondola rides to the summit of one of the Tetons and a fun day at the Jackson 4th of Julyl parade followed by spectacular fireworks that evening.
It is a trip that we will remember as a family highlight that was sealed by a 50th dinner sponsored by our children.
