2009 Knights of Columbus Charity Golf Classic

by Pat Joy

This year’s Knights of Columbus Charity Golf Classic was held on Monday, October 5th at Makefield Highlands Golf Course. Thanks to the generous support of our sponsors, golfers, diners and committee members, we enjoyed our most successful outing to date, raising over $14,000 for our charity funds.

For the fifth year in a row, our council joined forces with our brothers of St. John the Evangelist Council to host the Golf Classic and once again, The Lord blessed us with good weather.  One hundred-seven golfers gathered for lunch and at 12:30 PM, everyone teed off at the beautiful links of Makefield Highlands, which has become one of the premier municipal courses in the area. The course was in excellent condition and the scramble format plus numerous “mulligans” gave every foursome a chance to shoot par golf. After a great afternoon on the course the golfers were joined by another 30 Knights, wives and guests for a delicious buffet dinner of London broil, chicken and pasta prepared and served by the Makefield Highlands catering staff.

Monsignor Shoemaker led us in prayer before the meal and Father Kennedy also attended. Tom Rossi of St. John’s was the MC and he started the festivities by inviting all of us to join in the silent auction, the Chinese auction and the 50-50 drawing. The silent auction prizes included six rounds of golf at area golf courses, Yankees baseball and Flyers hockey tickets, jewelry and a basket of cheer.,

The Chinese auction of over 30 items included numerous gift certificates at local restaurants.

The 50/50 drawing realized $300. The foursome led by Andy Strock took first prize for the lowest score. At the end of the evening the golfers, wives and guests agreed that the annual golf classic was a most enjoyable afternoon and evening of fun, food and fellowship.

Once again, we were blessed with many generous sponsors who made this charitable event a great success. Many thanks to Jim McCaffrey and McCaffrey’s supermarkets for their platinum ($2500.) sponsorship.  Our other major sponsors at the gold ($1000.) level include Dan and Thelma Pisano of St. Ignatius Aid for friends, Chris Mahle of Benefit Watch, Inc., Jack and Sean Sammon/A.C.&S contractors, and  Richard  Rudd of HILTI Corp., Over 90 individuals and businesses supported the golf classic. This year’s net profit will be divided evenly between our two councils and will fund the important charitable work of our brotherhood.

The golf committee, co-chaired by Len Kuchera of St. John’s and Pat Joy, PGK , included Jack Sammon, Bill Gibney, Peter Revis, GK Dom Licastro and PGK Frank Fazzalore of our council and eight members of St. John’s council. A total of fifteen men and wives volunteered their time on the day of the outing.

Please save this date: October 4, 2010, for the annual Knights golf classic at Makefield Highlands. See you there!!!!
