Turtle S’Wing and Shoot a Success
Sept. 20 turned out to be a hot but beautiful day for the 3rd Annual Turtle S’Wing and Shoot at The Big Easy Ranch, title sponsored by J Bar B. Over 150 supporters of the Turtle Wing Foundation gathered for the golf tournament, clay shoot, and dinner to celebrate and play for a cause. The funds raised from the event will go toward Turtle Wing programming, in their mission to help individuals with learning challenges “grow wings and fly!” The event would not have been a success without the sponsors, donors, participants, volunteers, board, and staff of the foundation and the staff of The Big Easy Ranch.
