Excitement was in the air for the 35th Annual Chili Open Golf on Saturday, February 1st. Despite facing some challenges during set-up day due to rain and muddy conditions, the skies cleared to a brilliant blue on the day of the event, which was proudly presented by Wayne Homes. This event was held again at the scenic Hale Farm and Village in Bath, Ohio. With final numbers in, we are excited to announce the total raise is $362,098!
Akron’s own WAOH’s broadcasting services were on site and captured some great moments of the day! Click here to watch a short video.
