2026 Golf & Give

Recently, I had the opportunity to participate in the Van Dyk Mortgage 2026 Golf & Give event benefiting Folds of Honor and Arbor Circle, and it was a day to remember.

For the past three years, I’ve had the privilege of being part of this outing as a member of Arbor Circle’s Board of Directors. Whether I was golfing or simply driving the cart, I looked forward to this event each year because of the incredible people it brings together and the meaningful causes it supports.

When I opened my agency, one of my goals was to become more involved as a sponsor. Supporting organizations that make a difference in our community has always been important to me, so being able to sponsor a hole at this year’s event was a special milestone and one I was proud to achieve.

The Golf & Give outing once again brought together community leaders, business professionals, supporters, and friends, all united around a common purpose: making a positive impact. Funds raised through the event will help support the important missions of Folds of Honor and Arbor Circle, benefiting veterans, military families, and individuals throughout our community.

It was great to connect with fellow Arbor Circle board members and staff, community partners, golfers, sponsors, and donors throughout the day. A special thank you goes out to everyone who participated, donated, sponsored, volunteered, or simply stopped by to say hello. Events like this are successful because of the generosity and commitment of so many people.

I'd also like to thank Troy Averill of TNT Golfapalooza for allowing me to sponsor the popular golf ball cannon, and Joe Dishinger for organizing another outstanding outing. Your hard work and dedication make this event possible year after year.

Knowing that veterans and community members will benefit from the support generated at The Mines makes the event truly meaningful. I’m already looking forward to next year’s Golf & Give and another opportunity to support two incredible organizations while spending time with an amazing community of supporters.

Together, we can make a lasting impact, one swing at a time.
