Heavy rainfall delayed some events for the second annual Tom Bearson Foundation Golf Outing held July 23 at Blackberry Ridge Golf Course in Sartell, but the sun later came out and found these five golfers in good spirits. They are (from left to right): Todd Hubbard of St. Cloud, and Rod VanSurksum, Gordy Meyer, Amy VanSurksum, and Michelle Meyer, all of Sartell. The event was a fundraiser for projects initiated by the foundation done in the memory of Bearson, an 18-year-old Sartell resident and high school basketball player who was murdered in the Fargo-Moorhead area in 2014. The killing of the North Dakota State University student has not yet been solved.
