There were 130 golfers for the tournament which was originally scheduled for June 15. The committee decided to postpone the golf tournament for the health and safety of the attendees and businesses involved.

“We appreciate them for bearing with us as we rescheduled the event,” Jessica M. O’Donnell, EVP Affiliated Chambers, Greater Lehigh Valley Chamber of Commerce, said.

“I want to thank all those who participated in some way which allowed us to move forward with the event and provide some type of normalcy during these challenging times. We heard from many of our attendees on how thankful they were that we held the event and for providing some normalcy for them,” O’Donnell said.

“Despite being in a pandemic, it was almost like we did not skip a beat. We ended up selling out for the fifth year in a row. We were still able to maintain the customary Emmaus Main Street Partners’ golf outing flare with all the things that makes this tournament stand out from the rest. We are looking forward to next year to continue the momentum of growing this tournament and adding something new! I mean it is an expectation every year and one reason we sell out in the early bird registration.”
