Humanitarian Aid: Annual Golf Classic

Presenting Sponsors: Bernadette Rehnert & Family; Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom, LLP
Leading Sponsors: The Casey Family; Jennifer Eckert; The Haroian Family; Phase Forward
Our 10th Annual Golf Classic was held on September 15, 2008 at the Marlborough Country Club. With the support and generosity of our players, sponsors, and auction item donors, we raised nearly $60,000 for our Humanitarian Aid work, which helps support programs and services for many thousands of children around the world.
Congratulations to the winners of the 10th Annual Golf Classic!
Players began the day with a delicious lunch donated by Panera Bread then hit the course with a shot-gun start at noon. The weather was beautiful and players showed generosity, enthusiasm, and a bit of competitiveness at the context holes. The winning foursome finished the course with a score of 63, and our second and third place teams were not far behind, both achieving a 65. After an exciting 18 holes of oglf, players feasted on a delicious dinner provided by Blue Ribbon BBQ and bid on items at our silent and live auctions, including Red Sox/ Yankees tickets and a Tuscan Villa Getaway.
We extend our sincere gratitude to all those who contributed to make this critical fundraiser such a great success!
