18th Annual AME BC Invitational Golf Tournament and Fundraiser

The 18th Annual AME BC Invitational Golf Tournament and Fundraiser was held on Tuesday, May 18, at Mayfair Lakes Golf and Country Club in Richmond. Despite the rain in the morning, over 140 golfers showed up and braved the conditions. By mid afternoon, the sun came out and a gorgeous sunset was enjoyed by all at the post-round banquet.
