The 2019 RSPA Scholarship Golf Tournament was held at the award-winning Quarry Golf Course in San Antonio on July 28, before the RetailNOW Welcome Reception on Sunday evening. Players boarded the bus bright and early for a short 10-minute ride to the Quarry. Many were anticipating the Texas heat but were pleasantly surprised with a partially overcast sky and light winds. The views were magnificent as golfers played the back nine in a 100-year-old quarry pit. The Scholarship Golf Tournament provided an opportunity for fun and networking while supporting a great cause. There were several returning players as well as a few first-time RSPA golfers at this year’s event.
