RECAP: 36th Annual Chipping for Charity Golf Outing
The 36th Annual EHTC Chipping for Charity Golf Outing was a resounding success, reflecting the core values we cherish at EHTC. This year’s event was not only a testament to our collective commitment to the community, but also a celebration of teamwork, passion, and the spirit of giving.

2024 Chipping for Charity Golf Outing for PAWS® With a Cause
This year, we partnered with PAWS® With a Cause, a local nonprofit organization dedicated to enhancing the independence and quality of life for people with disabilities through custom-trained assistance dogs. The event raised an impressive $22,000 for PAWS® With a Cause, allowing them to further their mission and impact more lives.
One of the most heartwarming aspects of the event was the presence of 7 PAWS® dogs, who charmed everyone with their friendly demeanor. Meeting these incredible animals provided a tangible connection to the cause we were supporting and highlighted the importance of our contributions.
Additionally, the excitement of a golfer achieving a hole in one added to the day's joy and camaraderie. This event wasn’t just about golf; it was about coming together for a greater purpose and celebrating our collective efforts to make a difference.
