Thank you!

The MSU Women’s Basketball Golf Outing was a great success yesterday.  We want to thank all participants (golfers, dinner only fans, and sponsors).  Greta and I also want to thank Pat Tabbert and Bob Ulrich for gathering so many prizes and helping where needed.  Sue Eareckson and Chuck Fortino were always willing to help wherever needed.  Volunteers that made a huge impact on the success were Phyllis Marcussen, Don Jost, and Lisa Paige.  THANK YOU!  Greta Marcussen and Sheila Fortino
