What a day! The sunrise appeared over the horizon with zero rain in sight. 150 golfers participated in the annual Fore the Flames Golf Tournament on Friday, May 3, raising more than $40,000. Proceeds will support student financial aid and the EMS athletics program.

The tournament was hosted at Heritage Oaks Golf Course in Harrisonburg and made possible by sponsors and volunteers, parents, alumni, and Alumni Board members.

Golfers competed for greens fees certificates, Flames logo wear, and Harrisonburg Downtown Dollars. A 50/50 raffle for athletics offered the winner half the prize pool!
