I had the privilege to participate in, sponsor, and volunteer for this past weekend’s 2nd annual Bayfrog Open. The event raised money for the Uncommon Grit Foundation, formed by a former Navy Seal, to help raise money for veterans and first responders. It was one of the most amazing two days that I’ve ever had and the love and generosity displayed by those that helped put this event on and participated was immeasurable! Some of the VIP guests included former Bears quarterback, Jim McMahon and hockey legend, Bryan Trottier! I’m already excited for next year! If you’re thinking about getting involved, please let me know!
