Fresh Start and the Men’s Board extend their sincere gratitude to all who participated in the tournament and in our car raffle.   A sincere thank you to our generous presenting sponsor Valley Toyota Dealers who has been a loyal and generous Fresh Start supporter for many years and has been the presenting sponsor of the Charity Golf Classic for 8 years.
 
Valley Toyota Dealers has been a vital part of this tournament for many years and we truly value our partnership.” Said Richard Swetonic, Men’s Board Chair. “We also had incredible support from local businesses and organizations who signed on as sponsors, underwriters and golfers. We would not have been able to pull off this event without such a passionate and engaged community.”
