Out Beside You is hosting a golf outing to raise funds for outings in 2022
Patriot games
10/16/2021 - This is no normal golf outing, these are the PATRIOT GAMES. Foursomes must contend with stiff competition from other groups, the golf course, the elements, and Thaddeus Richter (a.k.a Theo; a.k.a The Afghan Sasquatch). At any time, groups could encounter Mr. Richter on the course, and who knows what kind of havoc he may wreak upon our unsuspecting golfers. The outing has been set up to continue raising awareness for transitioning military members and their families, as well as raise funds for outings in the 2022 calendar year.
