17th Annual Andrew’s Golf Benefit Raises $42,000!

We are pleased to report the results of this year’s successful event. We couldn’t have asked for better weather for a day of golf at Lyman Orchards. There were 124 golfers attending this year and we were able to raise $42,000! These funds will go directly to our programs and services to help those with epilepsy in Connecticut including information and referral, support groups, education and wellness programs, and Camp Courage.

We are grateful to all our golfers and sponsors, but particularly to Andrew, Sam, Amy, and Brian Purdy for taking the initiative seventeen years ago to start this event. There would not be a tournament without their passion for our cause.

Thank you to all of our sponsors: Premier Sponsor: Marcum LLP & Marcum Wealth, Gold Sponsor: Snyder Civil Engineering, Silver Sponsor: Mr. and Mrs. Jefferey Purdy, BBQ Sponsors: UCB, Hartford Steam Boiler, Bank of America Private Bank, Golf Cart Sponsor: Citgo, Lunch Between the Nines Sponsor: TAAG, Hole Sponsors: Highlight Landscape and Design, Constantine Paving and Sealing, Fay and Sons, Onsite Services and Pretzel Station Sponsor: The Race Family & Team Max: The Amazing Race
