Summit Golf Outing a Huge Success!

​Find out which individuals and teams came out on top in the golf scramble – plus some great pictures from the Grand Falls Golf Course. 

Golf fans attending the 2024 Summit spent Wednesday afternoon at “The Falls” award-winning course for DakCU’s Annual Golf Scramble, a traditional Summit recreational event. The scramble was at full capacity, with more than 80 credit union professionals, business partners, and guests, making up 18 unique teams.
​
The Dakota Credit Union Foundation board volunteered to handle registration and add-on games, and thanks to the generosity of the golfers, an additional $1,360 was contributed from the sales of mulligans and extend-a-putts. Additionally, a 50/50 raffle was held which brought in another $1,210 after paying the winner, all of which will go to our charitable foundation to support their mission of financial well-being for all. 

​This is the first time our event has been held at this course, which was designed by Rees Jones. Spanning over 7,100 yards, it features panoramic views of the countryside and includes a 30-foot waterfall that flows into a 12-acre lake. The beautiful course provided a memorable golfing experience all!
