The 97th South Atlantic Women's Amateur Championship, also known as the SALLY, held in January, raised $36,500 for the Halifax Health Chuck and Miki Grant Cancer Center for Hope and the Halifax Health Center for Women and Infant Health. 

The funds will be used to support new oncology treatment technology and care for over 2,000 new moms and infants this year. In golf action Gianna Clemente, the nation's top-ranked junior, shot a final round 75 to finish with an even-par 288, one stroke better than Morgan Ketchum, a freshman at Virginia Tech. Clemente, who shot 69 Friday to carry a two-stroke margin into Saturday's final, secured the win by tapping in for par on the 18th and a one shot victory.

The event featured A Taste of Oceanside Country Club and Friends, featuring Rosevilla, 31 Supper Club, Grind, Oceanside Country Club, SoNapa, Oil and Vinegar, Chicken Salad Chick, Huey Magoo’s, Billy’s Taproom,and Krispy Kreme.

"Halifax Health is thankful for the Ormond Beach community's overwhelming support for cancer and child care among other service lines throughout our 95 year history," said Joe Petrock, Halifax Health Foundation executive director.

Next year’s tournament is scheduled for Jan. 2-6. The 2024 Taste of Oceanside and Friends is slated for October 8, 2024.
