To All Sacramento CTA Unit Members and Guests! I wanted to thank everyone that attended the golf tournament last week and made it the success it was. We really appreciate the support of all those that attended, our sponsors as well as all those behind the scenes that helped put on such a great day...a HOT day...but a great day all the same. I hope everyone had a good time and got an opportunity to meet some new faces, hang out with some old faces and swap hydration techniques.
It is the goal of the Sacramento CTA Chapter to supports its members and most importantly, listen to them. We want to make this event better every year we have it and to do so, we would really appreciate feedback from everyone on things that might make next year’s golf tournament and even bigger success. Earlier tee time...check.
Thank you all again for making the event such a great success. I hope everyone can make our Presidents Night at Sierra Nevada Brewing Company!!!
Best Regards,
Brian Getz
