       Coldwell Banker Golf Event for Silent Observer a Huge Success!

Coldwell Banker AJS-SchmidtOn June 28, 107 golfers participated in the Coldwell Banker AJS-Schmidt golf outing at Blythefield Country Club, one of the best golf courses in the area. It was a beautiful day and the golfers all enjoyed playing at Blythefield whose staff made the day so special by providing wonderful food and excellent service. The outing raised $13,500 for Silent Observer which is very important to Silent Observer’s ability to continue to help victims of crime find justice and help remove dangerous criminals from our streets. 

Even police came out in support of our golf outingSilent Observer could not exist without the generous support of our sponsors.  And this golf outing would not have been as profitable without the many companies and individuals that donated prizes for our silent auction and raffle.  But most of all, Silent Observer could not have organized such a great event alone.  The golf committee, made up of Coldwell Banker realtors generously volunteered their time and talent with Silent Observer to make this golf event one of the best around!

Gold Star Mortgage Financial Group Team

Besides wanting to acknowledge and thank the golf committee and the prize contributors, Silent Observer wishes to thank the following companies for their generous support of this event:  Coldwell Banker AJS-Schmidt, Gold Star Mortgage Financial Group, Clear Stream Title, Kuiper Orlebeke, Approved Fire Protection, Dean Transportation, EPS Security, The Closing Office, Transnation Title, American Home Shield and B&B Beer Distributors.

 

    The Research Is Complete.....                           We Have The Handle On Van Andel

David Van AndelThe Silent Observer Roast of David Van Andel was a huge success.  Those having the courage to roast David well-done were long-time pals Mike Jandernoa, Danny Gaydou and Henry Emrich.  Tony Gates from WLAV was the emcee and got a few digs in about David too.  But David Van Andel's rebuttal was what the audience was waiting for and he didn't let anyone down.  This event was lots of fun and in the end raised over $35,000 for Silent Observer.

Special thanks to our Genome Sponsors who included Amway, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan, Peter C. Cook, Davenport University, Doug & Maria DeVos Foundation, Ralph Hauenstein and David & Carol Van Andel Foundation.  Their very generous support is greatly appreciated. 

 

Help stop crime by helping Silent Observer

Last year nearly 1600 residents tipped off Silent Observer helping solve 125 crimes and removing 81 criminals from our streets.  The Silent Observer Fast 50 Program, active in 65 middle and high schools, allowed tipsters to identify 72 students in violation of school conduct codes by possession drugs, alcohol or weapons at school.  These programs help keep our neighborhoods, businesses and schools more safe and secure making the Grand Rapids area a better place to live, play and do business.

So take an active role in helping your community while having a good time. Silent Observer has a variety of activities planned throughout the year. Your participation will help us raise money and continue our work. *JOIN US!*
