Hosted by the YMCA of the Brandywine Valley, the Fourth Annual Chester County Corporate Championship last month raised more than $40,000 for the Y’s Seventh Grade Initiative, a YMCA news release said.
The weather made for a perfect day Oct. 21 at the Old Course at Stonewall in Elverson for the 90 golfers from companies throughout Chester County. The proceeds will benefit Seventh Grade Initiative, a financial assistance program providing free, one-year Y memberships for seventh graders in Chester County, the release said.
Organizers credited the success of the event to the title sponsor, Gawthrop Greenwood, P.C., and all the other companies who participated. Congratulations to the Gross Score Champions, Michael Sanfrancesco and Neil Taylor from Brandywine Elevator Company; the Net Score Champion, Jules Quinones from Comcast Spotlight; and the Putting Contest winner, Allen Over from Susquehanna Bank.
