The inaugural Tin Knocker Scram- ble Golf Tournament was held at Emer- ald Valley Golf Club in Creswell. The tournament was organized by the Sheet Metal Workers Benefit Fund, a non- profit organization newly created to provide assistance to union members, their families, and others in need. FM Sheet Metal Inc. and the Sheet Metal and Air Conditioning Contrac- tors’ National Association-Columbia Chapter sponsored the post tournament banquet. Many contractors, local busi- nesses, and individuals in the commu- nity sponsored holes and carts and do- nated prizes.

Her son, Jordan, was diagnosed with leukemia nine years ago, but is in full remission. “Sheet Metal Workers are the best,” said Thompson. “They al- lowed me to stay home with Jordan while Mike went to work.” Support for the tournament was very strong, Tillotson said. “The event should continue to grow every year. It was nice to see union sheet metal work- ers and their industry partners give back to the community.” The second annual Tin Knocker Scramble is already scheduled for Aug. 14 at Diamond Woods Golf Course in Monroe.
