On Monday, April 23, the Osage Nation Foundation held its First Annual Charity Golf Tournament at the Tulsa Country Club in Tulsa, Okla.
The foundation was expecting 100 golfers but ended up having more than 130 golfers show up for the event. The day started off with a breakfast followed by a game of golf and then a silent auction.
The money from the tournament will help fund the foundation's summer programs that will be held across Osage County.
