On August 15, 2022, EconAlliance held its second annual Cross-Industry Golf Tournament at the Santa Maria Country Club. A beautiful day of golf with breakfast burritos to start and a box lunch on the course was capped off with delicious appetizers at an award reception in the clubhouse.

Board volunteers checked in the teams- from left: Patrice Mosby and Suzanne Singh. Big winners of the day were the Santa Ynez Band of Chumash Indians (Low Gross) and the Pacific Premier Bank team (Low Net)! Once again our top awardees were from the industries of Wine/Tourism and Finance, and Pacific Premier Bank was a second time overall winner (although last year the bank team won Low Gross rather than Low Net). Story continues below slideshow.
