A
WORD OF APPRECIATION
Thanks
to the sponsors, managers, leaders, golfers and
those who worked so hard to make the Third
Annual Unity Golf Tournament a successful
venture at the Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail. If One
Columbus' mission is to create unity and respect
among the diverse populations in the Chattahoochee
Valley, then yesterday was a living example of how
that mission can work. Diamond Sports Marketing and
Committee Chair Allen
Page, III should know that we appreciate their
dedication to making the event better each year. Our
photo gallery should be uploaded over the weekend.
