DAYTONA BEACH, FLA. – (January 20, 2023) The Annual Bahama Casual Event presented by Lowell & Nancy Lohman and Glenn & Connie Ritchey raised over $187,000 to benefit the Lohman Center for Diabetes at Halifax Health. The event, held January 6, 2023, at the Hilton Daytona Beach Oceanfront Resort, drew over 300 guests who were entertained by KTG Entertainment and enjoyed fine cuisine.
