Bobbie Salmon Benefit Tournament - well worth the time

Susan Conard

What a great day.

I just arrived home after playing in the Bobbie Salmon Benefit Tournament at The Links.  The tournament hosted  by Patti Marquis is a fund-raising event to help her good friend Bobbi who suffers from scleroderma.   Also, a LPGA Pro-Am event, Wendy Ward our hometown LPGA touring pro was there, as well as Bobbi herself.   Bobbi hung out with us for a few holes.  What a great person — North Caroline charm and great sense of humor.   After handing out trophies, in which my team took first for its flight, Bobbi humbly thanked everyone for coming out to support the benefit and teared up as she thanked her long-time friend Patti for hosting such a great tournament.

And although pin placements were as tricky as I’d ever seen them at The Links, I look forward to playing the tournament again next year.
