The 2008 golf tournament is a wrap
Going for the Green took place at
Brookfield Country Club on Monday, June 2, 2008. The morning flight was greeted with
clear skies
that continued for the rest
of the day! The event raised over $100,000 for Aspire;
bringing the 18-year cumulative total in excess of
$1,100,000!
“The success of this tournament each year
is based upon our long standing partnership with Dopkins and
Company, the tireless dedication of the committee and the
generous support of the corporate sponsors,” said Thomas A.
Sy executive director of Aspire.
After a festively
competitive day on the links, the golfers bid on abundant
silent auction prizes and trips while unwinding with
cocktails and a sit down dinner.
Many thanks to Dennis
Williams who graciously emceed the
evening’s events.
The winning team, The
Buffalo News — last four years defending champions , came
in with an impressive 59
2nd place,
for the second year in a row Waterbourne, shot a 60
3rd place
went to newcomer Sanderson & Company with a 62.
Although we are
delighted that all participants enjoyed the outing, we must
be reminded how important the tournament’s proceeds are to
the people Aspire serves every single day. The funds raised assist the families and individuals who use Aspires programs. Comprehensive and customized services
