The 2024 event was presented by NextGen Aero, with Airbus, Bank

Spirit Open to further our mission of inspiring positive change in
the communities where we live and work," said Linde Grindle, President of the Spirit

that change starts by giving back, and this year's fundraising
achievements will help us partner with more nonprofit organizations
