"We had such a fantastic inaguaral event in 2024, with 54 golfers on what turned out to be a beautiful afternoon at the The Meadows Golf Club!" shared athletic director, Chris McHugh. "The Meadows golf course provides beautiful vistas, across rolling hills, and an ideal gathering space for our post-event meal and awards!
Last year's golfing groups truly represented a cross-section of Emmaus...ranging from current staff and administrators, students and their parents, friends and supporters of the college, and alumni from across the years! For 2025, we are hoping to expand that broad representation and reconnect with 70+ golfers on May 19th!"
