First Annual Golf Classic Raises $88,000

On Monday, August 28, 2023, MMRI hosted its first annual charitable golf tournament at the Yahnundasis Golf Club, New Hartford, New York, in honor of its 65th anniversary. Twenty-five foursomes played 18 holes of golf, captain and crew style, while competing for the best overall score, longest drive (men’s, women’s and senior’s) and closest to the pin (men’s and women’s). Players also had access to the driving range and enjoyed a cocktail hour followed by dinner and an awards presentation.

With the help of its sponsors and players, the inaugural tournament raised $88,000 for MMRI.

“The event would not have been possible without the generosity of our sponsors and foursomes,” said Stephen Izzo, development director at MMRI. “We are truly grateful for their unwavering support.”
