DRAP is proud to host the 13th Annual Joseph Waters Memorial Golf Outing in conjunction with the 2025 Western DRAP Conference, an event that celebrates the memory of a remarkable individual and furthers a cause close to his heart. This year, we are excited to hold the outing at Pheasant Ridge Golf Club in Gibsonia, PA.

Since its inception, DRAP has awarded over $75,000 in scholarships in the name of David L. Christensen, another revered figure in the community and the former Director of Erie County Domestic Relations. David, like Joe, dedicated his professional life to the betterment of children and families. These scholarships not only honor his memory but also embody the spirit of giving and support that is central to DRAP’s mission.

One of the most impactful ways DRAP honors Joe’s legacy is through the Joseph Waters Memorial Golf Outing. This annual event is more than a gathering for golf enthusiasts; it’s a celebration of community, commitment, and the pursuit of educational dreams. The tournament’s proceeds go towards funding scholarships, enabling individuals to pursue higher education. This initiative aligns perfectly with the values Joe held dear – empowering the next generation and investing in their futures.

Join us at Pheasant Ridge Golf Club for a day of fun and philanthropy as we honor Joe’s legacy and continue his mission of making a difference in the lives of families and children across Pennsylvania. Together, we can drive change and support the future leaders of our community.
