	No Better Day to Play!
Aug 17 2010	Thanks to all who made the 17th Annual Jerry Jernigan Memorial Golf Outing a stand-out event. This year's golf outing could not have been better. There were more golfers and more sponsors, which together amount to more dollars raised for the students of WCC. The picture-perfect, pristine day was icing on the cake. Many thanks to all the golfers, sponsors, and volunteers who contributed generously to the outing's success. Stay tuned for the You Tube video and the Flickr photos.
