The 25th annual Drive for a Tech Golf Tournament, prime sponsor Auto Auction of New England, was again a huge success. The NHADA Education Foundation wants to give a special thanks to all of our members, partners, and friends who were in attendance this year.

Our golfers enjoyed a sunny and breezy Spring day at the beautiful Pease Golf Course in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. This year featured returning challenges and a handful of exciting new challenges. Among the new challenges were the Ding the Car challenge, Putting with Peeps (Gordon-Darby NHOST Services, Inc.), Birdie Ball (Volvo Cars Exeter, Grappone Automotive Group) and the Workforce Pipeline challenge (Service Credit Union).
