CFHLA Halloween Golf Open

It was a fa-BOO-lous day on the greens as CFHLA welcomed nearly 200 golfers and 36 hole sponsors to our annual Halloween Golf Open at the beautiful Mission Resort + Club (thank you, Cindy Staley, General Manager).

The day was filled with friendly competition, plenty of laughs, and outstanding networking as CFHLA Lodging and Allied Members came together for one of the Association’s favorite fall traditions. From festive Halloween fun to delicious food and refreshing beverages throughout the courses, there was no shortage of treats for everyone!

Beyond the golf, the tournament provided a fantastic opportunity for members to strengthen existing relationships, make new connections, and enjoy a little spirited competition in a relaxed atmosphere.
