2011 Knights of Columbus Golf Classic by Pat Joy

 

          This year’s Knights of Columbus Charity Golf Classic was held on Monday, October 3rd at Northampton Valley Country Club. Thanks to the generous support of our sponsors, golfers, diners and committee members, we enjoyed our most successful outing in our seven year history,  raising over $25,000 for our charity funds.

          For the seventh year in a row, our council joined forces with our brothers of St. John the Evangelist Council to host the Golf Classic.  Ninety seven golfers gathered for lunch and at 12:30 PM, everyone teed off at the beautiful links of Northampton Valley.  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 Northampton catering staff.

Deacon Myron Moskowitz led us in prayer before the meal. 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  baskets of cheer.,

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

          The 50/50 drawing winner was Tom O’Brien and the foursome led by Gold Sponsor Tom Parsons 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. This year, we are grateful to have a most generous anonymous donor contribute $10,000. 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, Jack and Sean Sammon/A.C.&S contractors, Tom Parsons of  W & W auto body, the Biggs family,  the Tallman family and Michael Hackman. Joe Coyne of Health Web Systems sponsored two holes at $500. , Over 100 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, PGK 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 1, 2012, for the annual Knights golf classic at Northampton. See you there!!!!

 
Below are several of our Christmas season events. Above all please remember our focus every year to "KEEP CHRIST IN CHRISTMAS!" To often the secular world finds ways to glorify materialism and push aside the "reason for the season," Jesus Christ coming into the world as one of us. Let us pray that Christ, the Infant King, reigns in our hearts this Christmas season.

2011 Knights of Columbus Golf Outing

Dear Brothers in Christ,

We are very excited to tell you about this year’s golf outing. As we did last year, St. John the Evangelist Council 7515 and Father McCafferty Council 11013 are teaming up for the seventh year to bring you another outstanding golf outing. Thanks to your hard work and our generous sponsors, the last year’s tournament raised over $13,000.  This year, the outing will be held at the Northampton Valley Country Club on Route 322 in Richboro on Monday, October 3rd. Proceeds from this year’s outing will benefit the respective Charity Funds of our two Councils.  

We can really use your participation in making this event an overwhelming success. Participation is simple.  We need golfers and sponsors.  Please see our website (www.yardleyknights.org) or call us for registration and sponsor forms for details on how you can participate.  Both members and non-members of the Knights of Columbus are welcome, as well as golfers of all abilities.  All members are encouraged to become a patron in our Ad book. We are also planning to conduct a Silent Auction at the dinner so any donations of themed gift baskets, vacation home rentals, sporting event tickets, frequent flyer mileage, etc., will be most welcome.

The purpose of the golf outing is to bring together as many people as possible to help support the Knights of Columbus Charity Funds, so please seriously consider participating in this year’s event.  In the past, our Charity Funds have been used to provide food and clothing for needy families, support for pro-life activities, support for religious and youth programs in our parishes, support for our priests, deacons, deaconate candidates and seminarians, assist victims of Yardley and Katrina floods, and numerous other worthy causes. Thank you for considering this request and please do not hesitate to contact us with any questions or comments that you may have.


Sincerely,


Pat Joy, PGK, Father McCafferty Council -
