Congratulations go to first place winners, the Carla Wilson Team, who shot three under par. Each player on the Wilson Team won an 18-hole pass to Shary Golf Course. This year’s event also exceeded our goal and raised over $5,000. Congratulations to the winning team and all other participants. Over the last two years the DeBuse Tournament has raised over $8,600 for the fight against Parkinson’s Disease. Bentsen Grove raises funds for Cinderella Pet Rescue Line Dancers at Bentsen Grove Resort recently held a charity marathon to benefit the Cinderella Pet Rescue in Palmview. Intermediate and advanced dancers took to the floor at 9 a.m. under the direction of Mary Lou Lane. They were quickly joined by beginning dancers and ultra beginning dancers taught by Mary Messerli and Jodee Taylor. Dancing continued throughout the morning. Park residents stopped in to witness the event and support the dancers with cash donations. Prior to the event, each dancer worked hard during the month of February to solicit donations from resort residents, family members and friends. True to Bentsen Grove’s reputation as generous and friendly, nearly $5,000 was raised. The Cinderella Pet rescue is a non-profit, no-kill shelter which rehabilitates and places unwanted pets out for adoption. Bentsen Grove’s donation was much appreciated as the shelter was operating at near capacity. Larry and Susan DeBuse Courtesy Photo
