FROM GARY SASSER PG. 1 annual Scott Wolf Memorial Averitt Open and the Averitt Cares for Kids Family Softball Tournament . I love how both events show we can enjoy time with teammates while supporting something bigger than ourselves. Through the golf tournament, we support the Scott Wolf Memorial Scholarship Program that helps associates and dependents continue their education while also honoring the memory of what Scott means to our team. And the softball tournament highlights the good works of St.

Jude Children’s Research Hospital and the special relationship we share. All these opportunities are part of an exciting time for us. And it’s made possible by you. You, as an Averitt associate, are what makes us such a great team with a great culture. Thanks for all you do, and I look forward to building on our unique culture throughout the summer and in the future. T m
