Brescome Barton and Worldwide Wines held their annual charity golf outing on September 21 at the New Haven Country Club. With 136 golfers, the event raised approximately $80,000 for the Marine Corps-Law Enforcement Foundation (MC-LEF). The golf tournament was organized as a team scramble with breakfast, lunch and refreshments served throughout the day. Various hole contests and raffles were set up on the course, all leading up to a buffet dinner and awards. Major Mike Abrams was the guest speaker. As Commanding Officer in Tennessee, he highlighted how MC-LEF was the first group to get involved with the families after the tragic shootings that occurred at the military recruitment center this past summer in Chattanooga.
