Tahiti Open raises $40K…and counting

By all accounts, the Tahiti Open fundraiser for Ocean Grill co-owner Jim Gillfillan’s medical bills was a huge success. More than $40,000 was raised through raffle ticket and sponsorship sales, and a silent auction for several prizes remains open through February 15. You’ve still got time to bid. Contact Connections for 411.

    Looks like so much fun! I’m glad to see Chad and Todd got away from Woody’s to enjoy the fun.

    12 days and I’ll be there – yeah!

    Rob,
    That guy was wearing a lovely seashell brassiere. I might be able to get you one if you’d like, to go with your hula skirt. (For the video.)

    I had the same reaction to the guy in the last picture…behind Ron. Major double take. “Is that a guy with breasts?” “Is that a chick with a full beard?” WHAT is that?

    Looks like a whole lot of fun was had by all.

    is it safe to assume the owner of the mini hummer golf cart was a big contributor?
