ABOUT THE TOURNAMENT DIRECTOR Josh Lykins is a community minded golf professional who could have taken an entirely different path in life if not for the influence of a childhood mentor, Mark Alexander, a real estate professional and Josh s volunteer Big Brother while growing up in south Florida. Josh credits his realizing his potential and giving spirit to the positive role model he had while growing up from the age of nine until his mother remarried several years later. Indeed the long term effects of such a friendship are remarkable. Josh and Mark are still in touch today.
