GOLF TOURNAMENT

golf

Normally this recap would mainly be about the winners of the 2024 Whitesboro Alumni Association Golf Tournament held on September 7th at the Hidden Valley Golf Club. This year Mother Nature had different ideas as a steady, soaking rain reduced the event to 9 holes with some of the teams unable to even finish that. So, while we were able to identify winners and hand out all our raffle prizes, 50/50 drawing and skins I'd like to communicate something a little bit different this year.

1st, and most importantly I want to thank all of you who showed up this year. With the weather clearly not in our favor we wondered "who would come"? The response was heartwarming and showed the level of commitment the participants had to making this fundraising event an annual success. 30 of the 32 teams that signed up came to play. So, it is once again with overwhelming gratitude that we must say to you once again. THANK YOU! Because of you we were able to raise almost $8,000 to be used to support our alumni and our scholarship fund. Mark your calendars for Saturday, September 6th,2025!

2nd, a big thank you to our title sponsors Usherwood Office Technology (Roger Hovey) and Mastrovito Hyundai for their continued and valuable support of this tournament. They are just 2 of the over 100 businesses who provided us with sign sponsorships, or items to utilize for our raffle drawing. Of note, North Country Storage Barns (Joe Schneider) provided us with a beautiful Adirondack chair and Suzanne Ng provided us with an incredible fall gift basket. I'd also like to recognize Personal Graphics (John Klauser) whose time and effort on providing our signage and placing logos on our giveaways is always appreciated.

3rd, this tournament would not have been possible without the hard work of our golf committee and our day of event volunteers. As everyone knows the festivities were quite chaotic and required a great team to make changes on the run to ensure that the tournament would be run as smoothly as possible. Many thanks to Mary Tritten and Lisa Langdon (registration), Pat O'Connor (50/50 drawing), Kathy Kane and Sue Misiaszek (raffle drawing), Aggie Barry, Gert Hovey, Linda Schmitt, Renee LaValley, Cheryl LaValley, Gabby Pugliese, Katlynn Hovey, Cindy Rosati, Darlene LeBuis, Doreen Engelhart, Paul Engelhart, and Gerry Schaller for all you did to make this year's event a complete success.
