On Monday, August 15th, the Pikeville Police and Fire Departments, along with the community outreach program, hosted a golf scramble for charity. The money raised will be going towards Christmas gifts for needy children, especially those affected by the recent flooding. This is the first time I think we've had the golf scramble itself. This is the raised money for outreach program for school supplies for children, Christmas gifts for children, and it's a joint effort between us and the Pikeville Fire Department to get this going on up here. We have 17 teams show up, which is on a Monday, and it overcast and rainy like it is, is great. All these guys come in here and donate the money and put up money for it. It's a good deal. It's a thing. It's going to be a yearly event now. I think this is the first actual first golf scramble we've had though. Turnouts are great. We have 20 teams sign up for it, and we have 17 teams show up. Like I said on a Monday morning, and it overcast and rainy everywhere but here, and we were blessed with good weather. It's not rained on as yet, and the turnout's been great. Everybody's morale's great. Everybody's pumped up. They want to win it. You know, there's still competition here, and so they want to win it, and we hope the best team prevails and gets their prize. Our detective Bruce Collins, he's an avid golfer, also a patrolman, Josh Lawson. He is an avid golfer. He's on one of the teams today for the city. They come up with the ideal, passed along to the Chief. The Chief thought it was a great idea to raise money, and it gets everybody outside. It gets everybody outdoors enjoying their self, physical fitness too, and camaraderie. Everybody's having a good time today. And so those guys come up with the ideal, and the Chief was more than willing, and the city backed us up and said, hey, let's do this. And Stonecrest provided us with this absolute beautiful location to do this in. It's amazing up here. While both the police and firefighters are glad the funds are going towards a good cause, the participants at Stonecrest are also happy to get out, share a round of golf with each other, and help their community. Well, first of all, it's a great day to be out here. The Pytwall Police Department hosting this event today to raise money for children for Christmas and recognizing the wounded warriors. So it's great to be out here in the day. It's perfect weather, cool, not too hot, and a good turnout for a great event, a great cause. I'm glad to see that people have come together again, and there's a lot of damage, and it's just terrible what's happened around eastern Kentucky with the flooding. But you know, people will, they'll bounce back, and they're very resilient, and they'll bounce back. For Mountain Top News, I'm Nick Collum.
