We just wrapped up the 14th Annual R Gregory Swedo ’96 Foundation Golf Outing. We had over 110 golfers + a great group of volunteers. Based on our bar tab – it looks like everyone had a great time….
In total – we raised over $10k, putting our 14 year total at $250k. We awarded our 11th scholarship this year!
We added a new twist – awarding the Matt Heldman Trophy – to the highest finishing ATO team. In total, we had 25 ATOs play, and 10 of the 27 4somes were in the hunt for the trophy – including 4 undergrads (special thanks to Bill Barry ’77 for sponsoring the undergrad team).
Congrats to John Bucklar for winning this year! There was a 3 way tie at -15, which included John Bucklar 96, Brian Grady, Andy Clark, and Chip Aubry. They lost in the 150 yard shoot-out by about 2 feet, and finished 2nd overall. John also did a phenomenal job putting together a video with pictures and music full of mid 90s classics. Here’s a link –
For anyone that knew Greg, it is a must watch.
Mark your calendar – next year’s event is tentatively scheduled for 8/27. We definitely need another 10-20 ATOs next year.
