GolfLocal.com Invitational – Golf Tournament

Webster East Golf Course was the home for the GolfLocal.com Invitational 4-person scramble on September 25th.

About 60 golfers and 10 volunteers took part in the tournament aimed to help raise money for the Wilmot Cancer Center. “Cancer has affected many people in my life and the lives of many others, so it only seemed fitting to donate to such a great organization,” said co-founder of GolfLocal.com Cody Dalton.

Good weather and great turnout

“The turnout was great and the tournament ran smoothly” said co-founder of GolfLocal.com Eric LaBarr who help to organized the tournament. All the teams had smiles on their faces and really enjoyed the golf course.

“We got a lot of help this year,” said Dalton who also helped to organize the tournament. More than 10 local businesses donated to the event. Prizes included overnight hotel packages, golf equipment such as putters and bags from Izzo, rounds of golf at multiple area golf courses, and other great prizes.

The tournament was open to any golfer in the area, friends and family and members of the EWGA (Executive Women’s Golf Association) and Genesee Valley Men’s League graciously stepped up to support the cause.

“I really enjoyed the tournament and enjoy playing at Webster East,” said Robert Gelb in the clubhouse after the golfers finished for the day. “This was our first year playing, and I know we will come back next year.”

2010 GolfLocal.com Invitational Champs

Three teams came in at 9 under par for a 63. To determine the winning team, it came down to a putt off which continued for 3 rounds. The team including Garry Hurwitz, Jamie Hurwitz, Randy Hurwitz and Robert Gelb came out victorious.

“The tournament was well organized, the food was great, and it was a great day,” said Keith Stein.

Awards were given out for the longest drive and closet to the pin for both women and men. The men’s longest drive winner was Jamie Hurwitz and the women’s winner was Kirsten Mortensen.

Closet to the pin went to Gary Hurwitz for the men and Kirsten Mortensen for the women.

GolfLocal.com would like to thank everyone involved including the sponsors, the golfers, and all the volunteers. It was a great tournament to help such a great organization. Thanks again and we look forward to next year’s tournament.
