The LCEC United Way Golf Tournament held in October at Pelican Preserve in Fort Myers was a huge success, raising more than $27,000 for United Way. Participation included 120 golfers, three corporate sponsors, eight platinum sponsors, nine gold sponsors and 22 hole sponsors. A wide array of prizes including two one-week stays at Sandestin Golf and Beach Resort were raffled at the luncheon following the event.

Placing first in the tournament were Jason Bryant, Harry Walker, Donald Gaddis, and Darin Gaddis. Coming in second were Steve Reynolds, Justin Reynolds, Jack Hernandez, and Manny Bergantine. LCEC is especially grateful to all the volunteers and participants for making this year’s tournament a great event, a company spokesman said.
