15th Annual Golf Tournament

Monday, July 18th at Irondequoit Country Club

The day started with some rain, but the skies cleared and the sun came out just in time for Catholic Charities Community Services’ 15^th Annual Golf Tournament at the beautiful and challenging Irondequoit Country Club! With “Ace Sponsorship” from Carol Girvin and Ciccarelli Advisory Services, Inc., as well as “Golf Cart Sponsorship” from First Niagara, the first year in this new venue was a huge success. Over $16,000 was raised.

The tournament format was two-person best ball, and the winning team was CCCS Board Member, Timothy Sheehan and his partner, the Honorable Judge John DeMarco. Second place honors went to Andrew Allocco and Christos Karras. Bryan Busacco and Jerry Matull took third place. Other winners of the day included Chris Ginther (men) and Elissa Livingston (women) for Longest Drive, and Geoff Reed (men) and Sarah Kwiatkowski (women) for Closest To The Pin.

Following the tournament, players cooled off and relaxed while bidding on the tremendous array of silent auction prizes and then enjoyed a delicious dinner followed by Irondequoit Country Club’s signature chocolate chip cookies!

This long-standing tournament raises money for the many people in the community whose lives are enhanced by CCCS. These include adults and children living with developmental disabilities; individuals who have experienced a traumatic brain injury; children and adults affected by and/or infected with HIV/AIDS; and those seeking an alternative to nursing home care. Tournament proceeds will help address our funding gap and enable us to continue providing critical services in our community.
