First Annual YEF Golf Tournament was a huge hit!

The York Education Foundation Golf Tournament at York Golf and Tennis Club was a rousing success. More than one hundred golfers participated in the 18 hole scramble on a perfect, warm September day. While some groups scored better than others, everyone had a terrific time. The golfers were fed a hot-off-the-grill lunch complete with sides.

The tournament awarded prizes to the top three foursomes. Bill Greenier, Paul Sevigny, Dan McPhail and Tom Gorham finished in first place with a score of 58.

The post-golf reception was lively, with 150 people in attendance at the Old Clubhouse.   Guests sampled hot and cold passed hors d’oeuvres , a charcuterie and cheese board, fruit and crudités.

Don Matthews was the winner of the 50/50 raffle, taking home $500.
