One of the Chamber's top events and larger fundraisers, the annual golf outing took place Tuesday afternoon at the beautiful Clinton Country Club on a perfect afternoon for the first day of fall.

The Chamber, like most organizations across the country, has had many events impacted due to the coronavirus, and Tuesday organizers were able to pull off the rescheduled outing. Chamber Board President Josh Shofner indicates it was a way to generate some revenue for the Chamber and give their members a good time.

During the COVID pandemic, a lot of Chamber board meetings were conducted over Zoom calls and Shofner indicates it was nice to be able to execute the rescheduled Chamber Golf outing after many tough decisions they had to make.

During the COVID shutdowns and the through the cancellations of many events, Shofner indicates Chamber members that paid dues to events that were canceled stepped up and allowed the Chamber to keep those funds or keep them as payments for future events, allowing the Chamber to continue to operate.

According to Shofner, they will begin thinking about some of their future events after the Haunted House season wraps up like the annual Chamber dinner, the business expo, and May Days. 

Organizers reported 13 teams at this year's event, originally scheduled for June. The 13 teams were down from a record 21 teams last year.
