Another successful Swinging Skirts Golf tournament was held on Friday, September 6th, 2019 at the Nk’Mip Canyon Desert Golf course.
The weather cooperated and gave the 122 enthusiastic golfers a beautiful day. Ladies from around the Thompson-Okanagan participated in the 2-lady team event, with activities on the course to keep everyone busy throughout the day. Refreshments were provided by the Firehall Brewery & Desert Hills winery.
The Women of Oliver for Women Society (WOW) partnered with Investors Group Wealth Management (Michelle Weisheit) and the Nk’Mip Canyon Desert Golf course to raise $17,000 to help support the following charities: Desert Sun Counselling & Resource Centre, Highway to Healing,
Education Award to Adult Women, Right to Play, Oliver Food Bank, Sun Fun,
South Okanagan Secondary School bursary, Maple Springs summer camp,
