The Foundation is happy to announce TR Wholesale Solutions, who played in Indianapolis, IN are the AACF Top Contender Champion winners. First runner up goes to Federated Auto Parts team who played in Richmond, VA; and Second runner up awarded to Interstate Batteries team from Columbus, OH. Each player of the winning teams will be awarded beautiful crystal trophies, and Amazon gift cards, sponsored by Truck Hero.

“We plan to continue this event next year, in addition to our Annual Charity Golf Tournament”, said Tyler Reeves, board trustee. “We saw such a positive response, had well over 200 golfers at 17 locations and feel there is endless potential to grow this event in the years to come.”

“We were proud that we were able to find a safe, fun, and all-inclusive fundraising event, during these challenging times.” said Ayres. “Our sincere thanks to the companies who participated and showed up to support the Foundation.”
