The odds of making a hole-in-one is 12,500 to 1. The odds of making TWO aces in a single round? Try 67 million to 1. Over the weekend, Chambers Bay Golf Course guest Steven Mazon celebrated his birthday with his brother and two friends at the site of the 2015 U.S. Open and beat those incredible odds by recording a hole-in-one on No. 3 and 17 at Chambers Bay. Talk about a birthday present and a round he'll never forget. ??: @steven.audis (via Instagram) #ThisIsKemperSports

Yesterday, members of our home office team spent the morning in another "office" volunteering at Bernie's Book Bank by sorting and packing books for under-resourced children in the local community. Bernie’s Book Bank helps children build personal libraries where they can explore new ideas, gain knowledge and strengthen reading skills. Extremely grateful to the Bernie's Book Bank team for having us out and allowing us to be a small part of their incredible mission. To learn more, visit www.berniesbookbank.org. #ThisIsKemperSports
