Today’s golf blog update is from
John Davitt, an RSM US tax senior associated based out of the firm’s Rockford,
IL office. John traveled to Sea Island for The RSM Classic as part of his role
with the firm’s Birdies for Love program.
After
wrapping up our firm’s Birdies
Fore Love fundraising campaign for 2015, I was eager to experience The RSM Classic first hand at Sea Island,
GA. Saturday morning, we were very excited to leave the eight inches of snow in
Chicago for the southern comforts of Sea Island. I brought my wife Alison, and was
eager to show her the culture of RSM.
Upon
arrival, we were greeted with the beautiful landscape of Sea Island, with all The
RSM Classic signs and decorative touches enhancing the beauty of the island is
this RSM employee’s mind. After entering the lobby of The Cloister, all of our
expectations were far exceeded. The hotel staff was beyond accommodating, and
it seemed that every detail of our stay had been well thought out by the RSM
team. We felt surrounded by a gracious
community of employees and guests. And appreciate now having first-hand
knowledge of how our firm’s clients and potential clients are treated as part
of their RSM Classic experience.
Saturday
evening, we attended a concert by Martina McBride. She put on a fantastic show,
which was enjoyed by all. The concert also gave us an opportunity to interact
with other RSM employees and their guests. The hospitality that our firm
extends to clients and guests is a true reflection of the culture of RSM – we
truly do understand our clients, and strive to always provide them with
first-class experiences. And the charitable component of the tournament, the
concert and other related activities is a perfect display of RSM’s values of
excellence and stewardship.
Today, is the final round of the 2015 RSM Classic. We are eager to watch as Kisner, Chappell, and McDowell play at the top of the leaderboard in efforts to be this year’s winner. Although the unfolding of the tournament is exciting, the real celebration is the impact that RSM has had in 2015 in changing lives across all communities. We are very thankful for the opportunity to be a part of the 2015 RSM Classic, and would encourage everyone to attend and support this event in the future. It’s a great way to give back to the community, while also having fun.
