On June 6, 2011 I had the honor of photographing 560 WIND’s Third Annual Tee Party Golf Outing at the Elgin Country Club to benefit “A Ray of Hope on Earth”. A Ray of Hope on Earth was founded by former Chicago Bear, Ray McElroy and is resolute about empowering youth, changing lives and making a difference by any means necessary! Being blessed with the platform of football is just the vehicle to impart meaningful principles into the lives of youth, young adults and families across America. It was a fun filled day with Big John Howell, Amy Jacobson, Otis Wilson, Ray McElroy, Earl Bennett, Caleb Hanie & Corey Wootton. The day started with a delicious luncheon from Kathy Pedersen of On Occasion Catering. Then we headed outside for photos of the foursome players with John & Amy and the Chicago Bears! A short announcement was made from Big John Howell & Amy before heading out to the beautiful golf course for an 18 hole game! It was a hot but gorgeous day for golf and everyone had a great time. After a few hours of golf the night ended with a dinner and a few words from Amy Jacobson, Big John Howell, Tom Sodeika of Precision Payroll of American & Ray McElroy! I had a blast meeting some great people and enjoying the day! Here are some of the highlights!
