Cash&Carry Cup, Supporting the Fight Against Hunger

Langdon Farms Golf Course 

Houston’s was happy to be a sponsor of the 6th Annual Cash&Carry Cup in Aurora, OR!

The Cash&Carry Cup is a part of an annual fundraising program held by Cash&Carry Smart Foodservice to help fight hunger in partnership with Feeding America, a nationwide network of 200 food banks that leads the fight against hunger in the United States. Since the program started in 2012, Cash&Carry Smart Foodservice has raised over $800,00 for local food banks!

Langdon Farms Gold Club hosted the event, and the course was in great shape. Clear and sunny skies accompanied the golfers as the tournament was set to begin. As event sponsors, Geoff and Gregg Dann (of Houston’s) along with Johnny Huang (of Thunder Group) teamed up with Ray Meyer (of Cash&Carry Smart Foodservice) to play in the Cup! The format was Shotgun Start meaning all groups of players tee off simultaneously from different holes, making for a very action-packed round of golf. The men played well, but did not place. But in the end, placing did not matter. All that matter was being able to participate and give to such a great cause.

“Cash&Carry has been committed to relieving hunger with this event for a number of years,” says Geoff Dann, Director of Merchandising at Houston’s. “It’s a privilege to participate and help contribute toward their cause, along with our friends in the industry.”

Also at the event you could find a silent auction, an abundance of food, raffles for prizes, and various team awards! All proceeds from the event went to local food banks that Cash&Carry Smart Foodservice teamed up with to fight hunger via cash and food donations.

It was wonderful to be part of such a positive event and Houston’s looks forward to continued partnerships that support worthy causes!
