First Annual AACF Topgolf Fundraiser Winners Announced

More than 200 golfers at 17 locations participated.

The Automotive Aftermarket Charitable Foundation (AACF) announced that the Inaugural AACF Top Contender National Championship was a big success. Teams of six enjoyed competing at Topgolf locations from coast to coast. 

“This was a fun solution to raise money for industry families in need and to offset revenue lost from our Annual Charity Las Vegas Golf Tournament being postponed,” said Executive Director Joel Ayres, “We saw an opportunity to try a new event, and it was a big hit!”

The Foundation is happy to announce the TR Wholesale Solutions team, who played in Indianapolis, Indiana, is the AACF Top Contender Champion winners. First runner up goes to the Federated Auto Parts team who played in Richmond, Virginia; and Second runner up awarded to the Interstate Batteries team from Columbus, Ohio.  Each player of the winning teams will be awarded beautiful crystal trophies, and Amazon gift cards, sponsored by Truck Hero. 

“We plan to continue this event next year, in addition to our Annual Charity Golf Tournament,” said Tyler Reeves, board trustee. “We saw such a positive response, had well over 200 golfers at 17 locations and feel there is endless potential to grow this event in the years to come.”

“We were proud that we were able to find a safe, fun, and all-inclusive fundraising event, during these challenging times.” said Ayres. “Our sincere thanks to the companies who participated and showed up to support the Foundation.”
