Hackers Honor Boys and Girls Club Benefactor
The Laguna Hackers rolled out the green carpet for the 15th Annual Bob Margolis Memorial Golf Tournament at the Aliso Viejo Country Club Monday, July 13.
Fifties fashions were sported by 144 guests, who after the tournament enjoyed cocktails as they listened to live music and participated in a raffle and silent auction.
The highlight of the event was the chopper ball drop, a helicopter dropping hundreds of numbered golf balls to see which was closest to the pin.
The winner won a grand prize of a Pelican Hill golf package for four. All proceeds benefited the Boys and Girls Club Bluebird branch.
