What a beautiful day for a golf outing! The Selfridge Firefighters returned to Cracklewood Golf Club for their annual golf fundraiser in support of Maggie's Wigs 4 Kids of Michigan and they did a wonderful job organizing this event to benefit the kids! Kudos to Chief Ross, Lyle, Wes and the team for their hard work toward this year's festivities. Mary and her staff at The 19th Hole Restaurant inside the clubhouse were very accommodating and Ali has previously donated her hair to our program several times! It was nice to see her and friend Jenna there. Everyone involved is truly invested in helping us serve more Michigan children in need at no charge.
