The fourth annual Marsha Morton Memorial Cystic Fibrosis Golf Tournament was held at the Hammond Golf & Country Club on September 23rd. 

Rhodes & Williams Insurance Brokers have chosen Cystic Fibrosis as one of it's two charities, so it was a pleasure for us to help out by sponsoring a hole-in-one contest, entering two foursomes, allowing staff time off to volunteer at the event, and recruiting sponsors (including the two platinum sponsors) and donations, contributing over $9000 to the total amount raised - $17,400.

The title sponsor of the event was the Kin Club of Orleans & District.  This year's event saw Honorary Kin Kevin Blades, a CF adult, speak to the audience about his affliction with CF and how it impacted his life.

Tournament Chair Cindy Robertson was overcome with the final results. "I can't thank you enough; the golfers for the continued support you show to help this cause; our very generous sponsors; and, all of the volunteers who help make this happen". This year's event brought in a record number of sponsors and donors, including platinum sponsorships from Gore Mutual Insurance Company and Intact Insurance.

The tournament is named in honour of Marsha Morton, a Canadian Cystic Fibrosis poster child and daughter of Ken & Karen Morton, members of the Kin Club of Orleans & District. Marsha succumbed to CF at the age of 12 in 1988.
