Alumnae Golf FORE Mercy

36 dedicated Mercy alumnae and even more friends gathered for the 17th Annual Meg Mallon Golf Outing on July 9.   Everyone at the event had a great time at the luncheon, participating in the golf scramble and enjoying the fun of the raffle drawings.  Mercy alumna Karen Ferguson '81, AKA Special K Lady DJ, provided rockin' tunes at the turn.  Nearly 130 people attended the delicious dinner that was generously sponsored by the Wisne family.  Meg Mallon '81 warmly welcomed each foursome to sign autographs and take pictures on the Golden Fox.

Special thanks to all the sponsors of the event and to all alumnae who attended.  This event would not be a success without you!

If you couldn't attend but would like a souvenir from the event there are still Meg Mallon hats for purchase on the Alumnae Merchandise webpage.  Check it out to get yours today!
