S4EA would normally be hosting our 2nd annual S4EA Golf Classic gala fundraiser in the fall of 2020 at the Riverwalk Golf Club from 1-8pm for 100-150 golfers. However, because of COVID-19, S4EA cannot hold our S4EA Golf Classic at the Riverwalk Golf Club with over 100 golfers. Therefore, S4EA had a S4EA Virtual Golf Classic in November, culminating on Fri, November 20, 2020 with nearly $8,000 raised for S4EA.

2022 Guacamole Bowl Results
The 19th Annual Law Enforcement Challenge "Guacamole Bowl" held Saturday, February 26, 2022 from 10am-2pm outside at the Recital Hall Lawn by the Balboa Park Club was a great success. Because of the Pandemic, this year’s event was a hybrid event with teams once again making the guacamole in the Balboa Park Club, but the member guests walked up to pick up the samples made by the various teams outside at the Recital Hall Lawn. The Guacamole Bowl attracted over 400 guests who tasted guacamole from 8 teams & helped determine who makes the best guacamole. The Guacamole Bowl made over $7,000 to benefit S4EA.
The winning teams are as follows:
1st: #Holy Guacamole
2nd: Kiltamole
3rd: Si Si Si Persea Avocatier
Congratulations to the #Holy Guacamole team who won the coveted "Guacamole Bowl" Trophy as the best overall team.
S4EA would like to thank Henry's Avocado Corp. for providing the avocados, Mission Foods for providing the chips, and all of the event sponsors.
