We are also grateful for donations received from Smile Associates – Bryan Francey, and St. Lawrence Radiology, Michael and Barbara Maresca.
The CPH Guild greatly appreciates the generosity of all sponsors and donors of prizes for the silent auction.
In addition, we thank Brian Fairchild, Golf Pro at Potsdam Town and Country Club, and his staff for their assistance putting up signs, preparing the golf carts, and doing many other tasks to make the day a success. Larci Wiley, manager of Fairways Restaurant at the Potsdam Town and Country Club provided a delicious buffet.
Volunteers were responsible for a myriad of tasks and did each exceedingly well. They hosted a silent auction, sold mulligans, 300-yard drive chances, 50/50 raffle tickets, staffed registration, and helped clean up after the event. Many thanks to each of them.
Finally, we thank the 72 golfers and winners for their support. All interested parties are encouraged to mark their calendar for Saturday, July 11, 2026, when the Canton-Potsdam Hospital Guild will host its next golf tournament at the Partridge Run Golf Course in Canton.
Again, our sincere thanks to all who made this event the best fundraiser of the year for the Guild.
Laurie Cappello and Kathy Del Guidice, CPH Guild Golf Tournament Co-Chairs
