OUR 100 FRIENDS ENJOYED A GREAT DAY AT THE BEAR’S CLUB

This year’s tournament was graciously hosted by GolfChannel’s Tim Rosaforte, our Chapter Honorary Vice Chairman. The tournament was dedicated in memory of our great friend David Burke. We extend our sincerest gratitude to Jack Nicklaus, our Chapter Honorary Chairman and a Trustee of The First Tee, and the members and staff of The Bear’s Club for hosting our annual 100 Friends’ golf tournament and dinner. “We were very excited to have Tim host the event and help us remember Burkie,” said Carl Mistretta, Executive Director. “Tim is a great friend to golf and The First Tee. This tournament helps us raise dollars for programs and helps us generate tremendous community awareness.” The winners of the net division with a score of 53 were – Bill Dunn, Bill Owens, Sheridan Fields, and John Rothberg (pictured above with Rosaforte and Chapter President Bobby Hendel). The winners of the gross division with a score of 67 were Team ESPN consisting of Steve Politziner, Eric Glasband, Ryan Burke (Burkie’s son!), and Nolan Murphy. “Our sponsors and supporters had a fantastic time, and everyone enjoys the hospitality of this very special club,” said Bobby Hendel, Chapter President. “It is just a great day of golf and fellowship.”

Thank you sponsors!
