FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

second annual golf outing – picture perfect!

(Rye, NY- October 1, 2013) Another perfect day of golf at Hailey’s Hope Foundation’s Second Annual Golf Outing held on Monday, September 30, 2013 at the exclusive Golf Club of Purchase in Purchase, New York.  The outing was a great success and raised over $75,000 for its programs and initiatives to support NICU families at Maria Fareri Children’s Hospital and other New York area hospitals.

In addition to the picture perfect weather, golfers were treated to lunch and cocktails before warming up on the putting green for the big event.  This spectacular 18-hole course was a challenge for many but thoroughly enjoyed by all.  Every golfer had a shot to win a gorgeous 2014 Maserati at the Hole-In-One Contest,  and other prizes included the Longest Drive, Closest to the Pin, Low Team Gross, Low Team Net, Low Individual Gross and Low Individual Net.  The afternoon was capped off with a great cocktail hour and dinner overlooking the course and special gift bags for each golfer.

We are very grateful to everyone who participated in and supported the event.  Special thanks to our sponsors:

  • Title Sponsors:  Alliance Building Services, Fried Frank, and Jones Lang LaSalle
  • Lunch Sponsor:  Au Bon Pain

Thank you to all of our Hole sponsors, golfers, volunteers, gift bag donors (Vineyard Vines, Fried Frank and Westchester Magazine) and the incredible staff at the Golf Club of Purchase for their generosity and for making our second annual golf outing a memorable event.
