  • Rain or Shine, The First Red Kettle Classic Tournament

    Rain or Shine, The First Red Kettle Classic Tournament
    Oct 1 2024
    I’m at Little Creek Golf Course for the first annual Red Kettle Classic golf tournament, organized by the Salvation Army. I talk with George Michell, a radio personality who helped put the event together with his committee. They spent months planning, starting in May, and while it wasn’t without challenges, everything has gone smoothly enough. There was some debate earlier in the week about postponing due to a tropical storm, but they decided to go ahead rain or shine. Thankfully, the weather cleared up, and the tournament has been a success. George is already thinking about next year and encourages people to support the Salvation Army, whether through donations, volunteering, or just learning more about the organization.
