Cobble Beach Golf Resort proudly hosted its 2nd annual 5km Lighthouse Fun Run on Sunday, April 28th, drawing in 225 enthusiastic participants and raising an impressive $5,892.00 in support of The YMCA of Owen Sound Grey Bruce!

The YMCA of Owen Sound Grey Bruce is beyond grateful! Thank you Cobble Beach Golf Resort for organizing this event and supporting our charity. We would also like to express our heartfelt thanks to all participants and donors for their invaluable contributions to this remarkable event.
