19th Annual Riverfront Golf Classic
May 5, 2008
Our 19th Annual Riverfront Golf Classic took place at Wampanoag Country Club in West Hartford, CT on May 5th, 2008. The tournament is set up scramble style, with awards and prizes in numerous categories. Golfers joined us for 18 holes of golf and a grilled lunch followed by cocktails and the ever popular raw bar on the patio before dinner and the awards ceremony. This year’s raffle and auction added to the festivities. All proceeds from the tournament benefit Riverfront’s many free public events and youth programming.
Many thanks to all the golfers, individuals and companies who participated in the tournament. Special thanks to our Tournament Sponsor - Wachovia Securities and our Lunch and Awards Banquet Sponsor - The Matos Group.
Look for the 20th Annual Riverfront Golf Classic in May of 2009!
