2010 Golf Tournament



Check out more photos on facebook.
The 13th
Annual Opportunity House Golf Tournament took place on Monday, June 7th
at the Berkshire Country Club. Once again, the Weather Gods were
smiling on us, for the sun shone brightly
and there was a nice breeze all day! For the past several years, our
tournament has been special, in that many sports celebrities have
joined in the days events. This year was no exception with Pro
Football players Fred Baxter, Jim Nelson, Omar Easy, & Brad Scioli
joining us, along with Olympic Medalist Diann Roffe and Allison Baver.
We were sold
out this year, with 30 foursomes playing in a four man scramble
format.

Marcia Graff, local
Berks County artist designed and painted a beautiful mural in
the women's dorm. The mural, a labor of love and perfection was
completed in January 2010. It depicts the serene and peaceful scene
that has a calming effect in stressful times. The women and children
enjoyed the process and especially enjoy the final results.

Opportunity House is located in Reading, Pennsylvania and serves residents of Berks County. Our goal is to help families and adults become and remain independent members of our community.
