Thank you! Another success!

Another year, another wildly successful golf tournament! It almost seems routine, but trust us when we say that the support from you all is extraordinary. We are beyond thrilled and grateful for such a fantastic turnout, donations (including some incredible auction items), and overall support you have shown for Kevin.

There were a number of highlights, but we’d be remiss if we didn’t give a special shoutout to Bill Burland for recruiting so many golfers and sponsors, Denise Neary for coordinating the auction and program, and Chris Kelly for his successful pinch-hit as emcee AND auctioneer extraordinaire!

We’re also grateful to the amazing committee and volunteers that organized the event. Like we said, it might seem routine — but that’s the result of the tireless work from our fantastic volunteers who secure auction items, line up golfers, and make the day run smoothly.

Thanks to all for your support! The funds raised by the great team effort at the event go a long way to meeting Kevin’s everyday care needs as well as enabling him to get out and about.

Check out some great pictures of the event below.

If you have any more photos from the event, send them over to Chris Neary at nearyc@gmail.com. It’d be great to post them on our Facebook page!

FORE! The tournament golf program is here! If you’re joining us on September 11th, you’ll want to check it out. Get a head start on our many great auction and raffle items. 

Golfing? Important info below – including new things this year!

On your way into Wyncote, stop at the Dunkin’ Donuts truck for a cup of coffee.

Please stop by our check-in table, so you’ll know where you are in the lineup. 

Then take a moment to walk around.  We have a few new things this year!

Back are the popular silent and live items, and the 50/50. 

Want a silent auction item now? Consider offering the buy it now price! Let a volunteer know, so we can mark it sold.  

But there’s more!  This year features raffles and gift card sales.  (You can buy those without even going to the checkout line!)

We’re having just one Dixon golf game this year, for $10 per player.

Coming just for lunch?

We expect golfers to arrive back between 12:30 and 1:00 p.m.

That’s when bidding for the raffles and the silent auction items will begin in earnest.

We expect our festivities (featuring some amazing live items) to begin at 2:30.

We look forward to seeing you there!!!
