Oklahoma City, OK -- (SBWire) -- 11/12/2015 --The Metro Tech Foundation earned just over $14,000 from its very first golf tournament, which was hosted at the Lincoln Park Golf Club. This tournament featured 17 different teams, 5 sponsors, 13 hole sponsors, and a number of different prize and swag bag sponsors.

The Metro Tech Culinary Arts students were at this event to showcase their fruit art training and offer a buffet-style lunch for those who were golfing in the tournament. The Metro Tech Foundation expressed its gratitude for all of the sponsors, golfers, and volunteers who participated in the event to make it a huge success.
