It’s officially golf week! ⛳ In this special edition episode, the crew breaks down everything you need to know about Putts for a Purpose, happening Friday, June 27 at Pine Hills Golf Course. What started as a bold idea on a 90-day timeline turned into a massive community-powered charity golf outing. From the charities being supported to the sponsors who made it all possible, this episode is packed with shoutouts, laughs, and a serious dose of local love.

Whether you’re golfing, sponsoring, volunteering, or just curious about how to make impact (and fun) collide—this one’s for you.

🏌️‍♂️ In this episode:

• How the team rallied a full-scale charity event in under 90 days
• The unique sponsor perks (yes, real content, not just your name on a tee sign!)
• Where the money’s going—over $10,000 raised for 20+ local charities
• What to expect on the course (Mustangs, Jell-O shots, and putting contests included)
• Why this isn’t your average golf outing—it’s Putts for a Purpose
