It’s time again for the annual Traveler’s MS Challenge at Alpharetta Athletic Club. In past years, Travelers was able to raise a good amount of money for the National MS Society – Georgia Chapter. This year, they raised $50,000.

The event was held on a beautiful fall day. This is in much contrast to the September flooding that Atlanta had and the continued rain on the days leading up to it.

This is my third year working with Traveler’s MS Challenge. Here are links to the 1st Annual and 2nd Annual events. This year, the event raised $66,000 for Multiple Scherosis.

Once again, I’m happy to be part of Traveler’s 2nd Annual Celebrity Challenge to raise money and awareness for Multiple Sclerosis. (The 1st Annual Event is here). This year, the Challenge raised $83,000.

Since this is my second year photographing the event, I think the players have definitely become less camera shy. Just look at how they’re at ease with the photographers.

And how about this trick, stacking golf balls then hitting one while catching the other.

And let’s not forget the challenge do give prizes for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd.

And look at this, ALMOST qualified for that Tiger-Nike shot!

Let’s not forget that this is a fund raiser. There’s the silent auction.

And Jack Llewellyn once again sharing his experience with MS.

And a final let’s not forget the volunteers.

Apparantly golf is really growing within the family. It’s almost to an addiction. So when someone hears about family reunion, it’s time to plan for a golf match. Of course, it’s also a good time for the boys to come out and drive the golf carts for the men. However, Noah will have nothing about driving a cart, he’s more interested in driving the golf ball 100 yards.

Austin doesn’t really drive a ball that long, but at least he did dual duty and drove one of the carts.

This is Traveler’s first annual Multiple Sclerosis Celebrity Challenge. The days leading up to this event was dreary and raining. But, the skies opened up on the day of the event and everything turned out wonderfully. Play was at the beautiful Crooked Creek Golf Club.

Of course, the day started with a heavy dose of fog.

Things still didn’t clear up as the players started to warm up.

When the skies opened up and sun came pouring out, play began.

And, of course, the celebrities.

And since this is a charity event, let’s not forget all the hard working volunteers.

The day ended with a silent aunction of amazing items

and a reception where $75,000 was presented to the National MS Society – Georgia Chapter.

I guess this is a case of turning lemons into lemonade. It was early Wednesday that I wanted to head over to Crooked Creek to take photos of the golf course during sunrise. These were to be my stock photos for the Traveler’s MS Celebrity Challenge that’s to occur later that day. To my disappointment, the morning started with a dense layer of fog. You can’t see half way down the fairway. So instead, I decided to just hunt around for some other photo opportunities as I waited for the fog to lift. Here’s one picture down a cart path of the third hole.
