Grandfather Thanks Sheriff for Youth Golf Event

Sheriff Neustrom, I would like to personnally thank you and your wonderful staff for sponsoring the kids golf tournament at Hebert Park on June 21 and 22. I took some time off and attended, for the first time, this event with my granddaughter. It was a wonderful experience. I was amazed how professionally your staff conducted themselves, the patience they displayed among rowdy kids and how well they were prepared. Golf is a wonderful game which can be played late in life and to give these children a chance to experience the beauty of the game is priceless. My granddaughter and I look forward to next years event. In the meantime I have found a new golfing partner. Sincerely, Gene Veillon
