"I am proud to be associated with the Children's Beach House," said Rawls. "This wonderful organization works with children, families, and communities throughout Delaware to help children reach their full potential. It is gratifying for me to see people enjoying this great game of golf while at the same time furthering such a commendable and far-reaching endeavor."
